Savings Champion Rate Alert

Friday 25th November 2016

With fixed rate bonds in the news this week, following the Autumn Statement, more providers have made improvements to their fixed rate ranges.

Vanquis Bank has launched new versions of its 4 and 5 year fixed rate bonds, both of which offer a market leading rate.

4 Year Fixed Rate Bond - 1.80% gross/AER

5 Year Fixed Rate Bond - 1.95% gross/AER

Also this week, Atom Bank has improved its 2 Year Fixed Saver, which is now paying 1.60% gross/AER.

The account offers a market leading rate, although you will need to use the provider's app, available in the Apple App store or Google Play store, to both apply for the account and manage your funds. For more information on Atom Bank, click here.

To see how these accounts compare to the rest of the market, take a look at our Fixed Rate Bond Best Buy Tables.

So, more good news, but don't forget that High Interest Current Accounts continue to offer some of the best rates on the market, paying far in excess of the top fixed rate bonds, with up to 5% AER available from Nationwide*.

As always, if you need any help with your savings or want to discuss further options, please call us on 0800 321 3581, we’d love to hear from you.
