* Gross is the taxable rate of interest payable without the deduction of UK Income Tax.

** AER (Annual Equivalent Rate) enables you to compare interest rates from different financial institutions on a like-for-like basis.

It shows what the notional annual rate would be if interest was compounded each time it was credited or paid out.

Where interest is credited once a year the rate quoted and the AER will be the same.
