Important information
* AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded each year. Every advert for a savings product that quotes an interest rate will contain an AER. This helps you to compare what return you can expect from your savings over time.
** Since 6th April 2016, all interest is paid gross and with no tax deducted.
