Compare Clydesdale Bank savings accounts
To achieve your savings goal, you need a savings account that suits your set of circumstances. Of course, the right savings account will depend on how long you wish to lock up your savings for, how much savings you have and what sort of interest rate you want.
If you are looking for a savings account, you might want to review the accounts available with Clydesdale Bank.
Currents accounts have often come with modest interest rates. However, high street banks have increased their interest rates offered with current accounts to attract more business. These higher interest rates have resulted in more savers using current accounts for their savings.
Clydesdale Bank has six separate current accounts, which have different interest rates and criteria. It is important to compare the six accounts to find out which one is best for you.
Instant Access Savings Accounts
Instant access accounts offer you the opportunity to receive interest on your savings and the ability to make a withdrawal at any time.
Clydesdale Bank offer a number of different instant access accounts with varying rates of interest, which gives you the freedom to find an account to suit your savings goals.
Notice savings accounts typically provide slightly higher interest rates than instant access accounts, the trade-off being that notice is required before a withdrawal can be made.
Clydesdale Bank‘s 40-Day Notice account provides more interest than their instant access accounts, but requires 40 days’ notice for a withdrawal.
Fixed rate bonds enable you to access higher rates of interest, providing you do not make any withdrawals throughout the life of the bond.
Clydesdale Bank have fixed rate bonds that run between three months and five years, so you can find a bond that caters for your savings needs.
To take advantage of the £20,000 tax-free interest allowance, you could open an ISA.
There are two different ISAs available with Clydesdale Bank : Help to Buy ISA and their Cash ISA. Although they do not pay the highest interest on the market, the ability to earn tax-free interest is an attractive prospect.
