| What is the interest rate? |

||||||
| Can Mansfield Building Society change the interest rate? | This is a variable rate savings account and we have the right to vary the interest rate at any time. The interest rate may go down as well as up. If we change interest rates to your disadvantage on a variable rate account we will notify you in writing at least 14 days prior to the interest rate change. For more information on changing interest rates please see Section 7 of our General Account Terms and Conditions. |

| What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a £100,000 deposit? |
*A deposit of £100,000 would earn an estimated £2,500 interest over 12 months. As per the terms and conditions of the account, the monthly interest payment must be paid into a nominated external bank account (in the firm name), therefore the projected balance at the end of a 12 month period will be £100,000. This projection is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not take into account your individual circumstances. This assumes that the account is opened on 1 May with a £100,000 cash deposit and that no further deposits or withdrawals are made during the first 12 months. The projected balance is based on the annual rate (GROSS2). |
||||||
| How do I open and manage my account? | Exclusively available for Solicitors (who are regulated by Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA)) based in Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire or South Yorkshire holding funds on behalf of several different clients. This is an undesignated client account. To open an account, contact your Savings Business Development Manager, via the email address below under ‘How do I apply?’. You will need to provide the appropriate documentation and mandates listed below. The solicitor firm must also provide a Client Money Acknowledgment Letter, as per the FCA Client Assets Sourcebook (CASS) regulation 7.18.2R to open the account. A minimum opening and operating balance of £100,000 is required. The account can be added to at any time, subject to a maximum investment of £4,000,000, by cheque drawn on the nominated external business account or by electronic transfer from the nominated external business account. You can manage your account in branch or through the post. No cash withdrawals/no cash receipts. |
||||||
| Can I withdraw money? | This is an easy access account with unlimited, penalty free withdrawals by cheque or electronic transfer. Cheque withdrawals are available payable only to the business. No third party cheque withdrawals permitted. Withdrawals are also available by electronic transfer to the business bank account without charge. |
||||||
| Additional information | The Client Deposit account is a Deposit account. You will not become a member by opening a Client Deposit account but you will be bound by the Society’s Rules, a copy of which is available on request. It is the responsibility of the solicitor firm to conduct the appropriate Customer Due Diligence for all clients and maintain this ongoing to fulfill Anti-Money Laundering (AML) obligations. If required, the solicitor firm will need to provide this information to us. Interest on an amount deposited by cheque is calculated from and including the day after we receive it. We calculate interest on an amount withdrawn up to and including the day before withdrawal. Interest is paid gross without tax deducted. Interest will be sent to your nominated external client bank account on a monthly basis. |

1. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added to each year. AERs on the Monthly Income accounts 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 you won’t pay UK tax on any income or capital gains your ISA makes.
Our savings accounts are exclusively available to UK Residents only.
These account details apply to personal investors only unless stated in the detailed information.
