Explanations are based on current understanding of UK taxation. Tax treatment is subject to future change.

*Gross rate. Gross rate interest is the interest payable without taking account of any tax payable. If you earn interest over your Personal Savings Allowance you will be required to pay any tax due yourself directly to HM Revenue and Customs. If you would like to read more about your Personal Savings Allowance, please visit the Government website www.gov.uk.

++AER. The Annual Equivalent Rate illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year.

† The effective annual rate (EAR) is the cost of borrowing on current accounts. This takes into account the rate of interest charged, how often it’s charged and the fact that if interest is not paid, you'll pay interest on interest. The EAR can change.
