Treasure bond

The Treasure bond allows you to put money away in an account that is designed to grow with your child. The bond automatically 'rolls over' into a new issue each year so you don't need to re-apply.

  • Ideal home for longer term savings
  • Fixed, up-to-date interest rate
  • Minimum initial deposit of only £100
  • Automatic rollover into a new 1 year term
  • Access your money without loss of interest during rollover month

Interest rates

Interest rates are fixed for one year paid annually or monthly.

Gross rate p.a.
Interest rate payable before any income tax is deducted. It can only be paid subject to the required registration.

Net rate p.a.
Interest rate payable after the deduction of income tax, at the lower rate of 20%.

AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and shows what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added each year. This will enable you to compare more easily the return you can expect from your savings over time.
