Dear all,

Which Bank is good and secured and authorised for the Residence purpose through Bank CD of 25000$?

Other then this Someone need to have a 90 days visit visa or it should be 180 days visa? I mean a 90 days visa can be transfer into the residence visa after making a bank CD and apply in immigration?? Do a tourist can open a Bank account of this kind??

For how long we need to keep the Deposit in the Bank for the purpose of PR? and after how long its not a problem to take the money out? Is it safe keeping money in ecuadorian banks?? for this purpose??

That $25,000 (+ 500 per dependent) must be left in the bank for your entire stay in Ecuador.  You may take the interest out, but the $25,000 + must be left in a CD. 

Hopefully, someone can answer your other questions.
