All new customers opening a savings account will be required to sign a declaration agreeing to assign any windfall conversion benefits to the Charities Aid Foundation.

Our Charitable Assignment Scheme leaflet provides full details.
Definitions
1. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year. AERs on the Monthly Income account assume interest is added to the account each month although in practice the option to have interest added in this way is not available.
2. The gross rate is the contractual rate of interest payable without tax taken off.
If separate AER/Gross rates are not quoted, both rates are identical.
^Tax free means exempt from UK income and capital gains tax in the hands of the investor.
These account details apply to personal investors only unless stated in the detailed information.
