Presumably this is because the interest earned is taxable, while the
interest paid is not necessarily deductible. I actually have a
few kinds of interest:
1) interest derived from a savings account
2) interest paid on a home loan (deductible in one tax regime, but not
the other)
3) interest paid on non-home loans (possibly deductible in one tax
regime, but not the other)
4) "interest" charged by the government for paying a tax withholding
late
I suppose this means I need 8 interest accounts (4 times the number of
currencies)?
