What is the interest rate?

4.40% AER (Paid as 4.40% Gross)

AER is the Annual Equivalent Rate and represents what the interest rate would be if interest was realised and paid once each year.

Interest is calculated daily, compounded annually and is payable on maturity. Interest will be paid gross without prior deduction of tax.

Can Bank of Ceylon (UK) Ltd. change the interest rate?

The interest rate applicable to your savings account is fixed once your application is approved and you fund your account. The rate will stay the same throughout the duration of the fixed term. Should the bank amend the rate advertised before you have fully transferred funds and the rate is lower than the rate you originally ordered, we will automatically cancel your order. We will contact you if this occurs.

What would the estimated balance be after 12 Months based on a £5,000 deposit?

The estimated balance after 12 Months (364 Days) on a deposit of £5,000 is £5,220.00.This projection is for illustrative purposes only and does not take into account individual circumstances.

Security & Deposit Protection

The FSCS is the United Kingdom's statutory deposit guarantee scheme that covers deposits in individual savings accounts up to £85,000, per banking group regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority or the Prudential Regulation Authority. It is available for deposits with most UK high-street and online banks and means if the bank fails, and deposits become unavailable, the scheme may cover your deposit account deposit up to the £85,000 per person, per banking group limit. Compensation limits are per person per firm, not per deposit. Be aware that if you have other deposits with this bank (or banking group) then the £85,000 protection applies only to eligible deposits up to this limit.
