Banks don't want you to spend money. They want you to have as much in your account as possible. So it would be in their interest to encourage saving.

Pretty sure they want you to pay as much interest and generate as many interchange fees as possible.

This. One of my friends got a call from his bank trying to get him to sign up for a car loan because he had 30k € in his bank account and should "splurge" a little.
