Our Member Bonds offer a higher rate of interest and a better return on your savings than our regular savings bonds. The interest rate is fixed, giving you the confidence of a guaranteed return at the end of the term.
The rate is fixed for the term of the Bond, so you know exactly how much interest you’ll get back when the Bond matures.

The minimum opening balance is £500 up to a maximum of £1,000,000. Additional funds can only be deposited in the 14 days after the Bond is opened. After the first 14 days, no further funds can be deposited during the term.
No withdrawals are permitted during the fixed rate period. When the Bond matures, you can withdraw your maturing funds or transfer some, or all, of your funds to a new Bond.
No, your funds need to remain in the Bond until it matures. Our Members Bonds are offered on a first-come, first-served basis and can be withdrawn once the subscription is full. If we receive your application after the Bond is fully subscribed, we’ll contact you for further instructions.
