Junior ISAs

You can save on behalf of your children until they reach 18 with a Junior ISA. Your child won't pay tax on the interest earned up to £9,000 for the tax year ending 5 April 2021.

 

Instant access accounts

You can get instant access to your money whenever you need it with instant access accounts. Ideal for money you need access to in an emergency.

 

Fixed bonds

Bonds lock your money away for a fixed period of time in return for a higher interest rate. You usually need a minimum of £2,000 to open one. Fixed-rate bonds pay interest at a fixed rate. Tracker bonds pay interest tracked against a particular index or rate, such as the Bank of England base rate.

How do I add additional parties to my account?

If your savings account can be held in joint names, you can add additional parties at your nearest branch. You'll both need to go into a branch so that you can provide proof of identity and address in person.
