Additional information
AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates the interest rate if it was paid and compounded once each year.
Gross Interest is the interest rate applied to your 6 Month Bond and assumes it is compounded twice a year; once after 6 months at maturity and then after 12 months. This is the rate that appears in Oxbury Online Banking, the Oxbury App and on your statement; it is the rate that is applied to your account that will generate the AER quoted.
We pay all savings interest gross, which means no tax is deducted.
Accounts can be withdrawn from sale to new customers at any time and without notice.
