Invest with confidence: Guaranteed growth for 2 years

The Guaranteed Investment Bond is a 2-Year fixed-rate bond where you deposit a lump sum for a fixed two-year term and earn a guaranteed interest rate for the entire period. The fixed interest rate provides certainty about your returns, protecting your savings from fluctuations in the Bank of England base rate. This type of account is suitable for those looking for a higher, predictable return over a specific period of time.

A 2-Year fixed-rate bond suits savers with a lump sum who can lock their money away for the full term and want a predictable return at a set interest rate, regardless of market changes. It’s ideal for those who don’t need instant access and want to protect against rate drops. 

2-Year fixed rate bond benefits:

  • Guaranteed interest rate: The interest rate is fixed for the entire two-year term, so you know exactly how much you’ll earn.
  • Higher returns: Typically offers a higher interest rate compared to easy-access savings accounts or ISAs. 
  • Financial certainty: Provides peace of mind by protecting your savings from interest rate drops during the term. 
  • Safe and secure: Savings are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
  • Simple and predictable: Easy to plan your finances as you know the maturity date and total return in advance.

*What is AER? / How is interest calculated?

Interest is calculated annually and paid at the end of the fixed term. Each year, interest is accrued and added to your balance for calculation purposes (known as compounding), meaning you earn interest on both your original deposit and any interest already accrued.

The Annual Equivalent Rate (AER) illustrates what the interest rate would be on an annual basis, allowing you to compare products. As interest is compounded annually and paid at maturity on our bonds, the AER is the same as the Gross rate.

The AER stated assumes that funds remain invested for the full term and would not apply if you withdraw early.
