This account is suitable for companies who are looking for a safe place for their money and are happy to give 30 days’ notice in order to withdraw from the account.

About this account
This account offers a variable rate of interest as follows:
| Annual Interest | ||
| Minimum Balance | Gross* | AER** |
| £1,000 | 2.00% | 2.00% |
Interest will be paid on 1 December each year.
We may change interest rates at any time if we reasonably believe that the change is needed, for any of the reasons outlined in the Savings Account Terms and Conditions booklet, Condition 7.
Based on an initial deposit of £1,000.00, after a 12 month period the estimated balance would be £1,020.00
These figures are provided for illustrative purposes only and assume that no further deposits or withdrawals are made and there is no change in interest rate. They do not take into account individual circumstances.
