Today, it was announced that inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), increased from 1.60% to 1.80%. This is the highest that CPI has been since June 2014.
With this in mind, the highest paying easy access account, that is available to all, is currently 1.10% gross/AER from RCI Bank^. This means that most savers are now unable to beat inflation when opening a standard easy access account. However, it is still possible beat inflation and retain easy access through High Interest Current Accounts*, with Nationwide paying 5% AER and TSB Bank and Bank of Scotland paying up to 3% AER. Alternatively, for those who are happy to tie up their funds, Fixed Rate Bonds are another possible way to earn a return that beats inflation, with rates of up to 2.06% gross/AER available from the likes of Masthaven Bank and Secure Trust Bank. For more information, please take a look at our Fixed Rate Bond Best Buy Tables.
