Compare Saffron Building Society savings accounts
If you feel like your money is not working hard enough for you, then you might want to explore the savings options on the market. The right savings account for you will depend on the size of your savings, the period of time you are willing to lock your savings up for and the amount of interest you want to receive.
Saffron Building Society’s different savings options may be appealing, if you are looking to open a savings account.
Instant Access Savings Accounts
An instant access account allows you to make as many withdrawals as you want from your savings and enables you to earn interest.
Saffron Building Society have a few instant access savings accounts that allow you to achieve a modest rate of interest, along with easy access to your savings.
Notice savings accounts are suitable for those who do not require their savings instantaneously, as they usually require a number of days’ notice before a withdrawal can be made. In exchange for the notice, they often provide better interest rates than some other savings options.
The 90 Day Notice Saver account from Saffron Building Society requires 90 days’ notice for a withdrawal, but comes with a higher interest rate and can help your savings grow faster.
You can earn a fixed rate of interest, guaranteed for an agreed term, providing you are prepared to tie up your savings for the duration of the same. Fixed rate bonds typically provide some of the best interest available.
Saffron Building Society have three fixed rate bonds, which run from 1 to 3 years and offer their best rate of interest.
Cash ISAs are useful for growing savings and, up to a point, are not subject to tax. Cash ISAs have the ability to provide up to £20,000 tax-free interest.
Although Saffron Building Society’s cash ISAs do not come with their best interest rates, they do offer you the chance to earn tax-free interest and the ability to make a withdrawal at your convenience.
