Bradford & Bingley International has announced its latest one year fixed rate savings bond with emergency access.
Bradford & Bingley International, an offshore savings bank, have launched a limited-edition, one year fixed rate savings bond. Fixed Rate Bond (Issue 38) is paying up to 6.30% and matures on 31 March 2009.
The fixed rate savings bond can be opened with deposits of £5,000 or more with savers able to choose from interest on maturity or monthly. The closing date for applications is 31 March 2008 or before if fully subscribed.
Despite being a fixed account, BBI bond holders have the additional convenience of an emergency withdrawal option. If a customer needs access to their funds before the bond maturity date, they can do so subject to a 90-day interest penalty on the funds withdrawn. Bond holders therefore have the flexibility to react to any unforeseen changes in their circumstances during the fixed rate period.
Bradford & Bingley International is a leading offshore savings bank based on the AAA rated Isle of Man. It offers a wide range of tax efficient savings accounts for international and expatriate customers as well as Isle of Man and Channel Island residents.
