What is a fixed rate savings account?
A fixed rate savings account offers an interest rate which doesn’t change, unlike easy access and notice accounts. In return for this stability, you agree not to access your funds for a set period of time. They are the perfect option for businesses who do not need immediate access to their funds and can often enjoy better interest rates than other types of accounts.
At Recognise Bank, you can start a fixed rate savings account with as little as £1,000.
