Bus/Financial
Dutch term or phrase: Rentedatum
My instinct tells me this is 'interest date' but the English version of my ABN AMRO bank statements calls its far left column 'value date' whereas the Dutch calls it 'rentedatum'. Which should I use?
Lucy Spring
value date / valuation date
Explanation:
While Evert is right for most intents and purposes,let's see the other side. Unless the date specifically refers to interest payments, your ABN/AMRO terminology may be better.Even interests are accounted for on a certain date, which is the date on which the "valuation" is made. So the above suggestions would work in both instances.

Thank you. The Banking and Insurance Lexicon gives value date, but van Amerongen gives interest date, hence my indecision. Value date it is!

Interest date


Explanation:
is what I'd use as well.
Most banks never credit accounts the same day money is received, unless you negotiated differently with your bank (and have very substantial income).
Accumulation of all the payments received during e.g. the course of one day but credited one or two days later makes for substantial interests.

The opposite happens when you're supposed to pay: banks (may) debit your payment one day earlier etc
