Over the last month savers' attention has fallen largely upon the variable rate market, following the Bank of England base rate increase.
|
|
|
|
Today however, we turn our gaze towards the fixed rate market.
|
|
|
|
The headline of the day comes from United Trust Bank, launching a new version of its Cash ISA 5 Year Bond paying 2.20% tax free/AER, topping our fixed rate cash ISA table.
|
|
|
|
Although leading the way, this account can only be opened with transfers in of previously accrued cash ISA funds, no new non-ISA money can be deposited.
|
|
|
|
Meanwhile, we have seen an improved fixed rate bond hit the market - PCF Bank has launched a new version of its 1 year bond.
|
|
|
|
This account now holds a place in our top 5, paying 1.78% gross/AER and unlike many of the top rates, you are not limited to online applications only, you can also apply via the post.

†High interest current accounts often have a number of conditions attached to qualify for the headline rate. Please ensure you carefully read the terms and conditions before proceeding. Many of these current accounts do not require customers to switch their main account.
*We are occasionally paid by some providers if you click through from our Best Buy Tables and open a savings or current account with them. We will never accept a payment that compromises in any way our independent, whole of market approach to providing information on savings products. For clarity we will indicate those companies who remunerate us with an asterisk (*).
^Deposits held with RCI Bank are covered up to the value of €100,000 by the FGDR, which is the French equivalent of the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). For more information on this, please call one of our advisers.
