Fixed term deposits offer you the peace of mind that whatever happens to interest rates, you are guaranteed that your rate, once fixed, won't change until maturity.
We offer competitive fixed term deposit accounts for the following time periods:
Key features include:
- Minimum balance of £5,000 or currency equivalent, with no maximum.
- A guaranteed fixed rate until the account matures.
- Interest paid at the end of the fixed-term and either added to the account, paid away to another account or repaid by cheque or SWIFT.
- Withdrawals are permitted at any time on the following basis:
- At maturity – withdrawals are permitted at maturity. No breakage charges are levied to withdraw from a maturing deposit account.*
- During the fixed term – withdrawals may be permitted during the fixed term, depending on the type of investment. Each time there is a withdrawal this will incur an administration fee of £100.00 or currency equivalent plus the cost that will be incurred by the Bank to break the deposit. A transfer charge will be applicable if the funds are to be paid away electronically.*
- At the end of the fixed term the account will be automatically re-invested for the same term unless otherwise instructed.
- Available in all major currencies
- Interest on your account is paid gross without any tax being deducted or withheld by the Bank, unless you fall within the jurisdiction of the EUSTD. **
* Please refer to our Schedule of Charges.
** You may have a tax liability in your country of residence in respect of interest paid on deposits with the Bank. It is your responsibility to obtain tax advice and to make all tax payments, returns and disclosures to the relevant authorities.
EU Savings Tax Directive
With effect from 1st July 2005, interest on deposit accounts for account holders who are resident in the European Union may have a Retention Tax deducted from the Gross Interest payments. This is to comply with the European Union Savings Tax Directive (the "Directive"). You may be able to avail of an exemption from this Retention Tax in accordance with the Directive. Please contact us for further details. If the Bank is required to make a deduction for Retention Tax on any sums payable by the Bank to you, the Bank shall have no liability to you in respect of any loss suffered by you. If the Bank is required to make a payment in respect of Retention Tax as a result of your failure to pay such tax, you agree to indemnify and reimburse the Bank for any such payments together with the Bank's reasonable costs incurred.
