Interest will be calculated differently for different parts (or "tiers") of your overall cash balance, as shown in the table above.

Note: Interest in the above Accounts are tiered within bands so you will currently receive 1.00% (gross) on the first £999.99, 2.00% (gross) on the amount above £1000 and below £6,999.99, 4.00% on balances above £7,000 and below £49,999.99 etc.

Please note that while the value of each tier will remain the same, subject to the change detailed above, the level of interest paid for that tier may vary over time. Interest on cash within the Vantage SIPP, Fund Account and Share Account is paid gross. Interest within the Vantage Stocks and Shares ISA is paid net. If you hold cash balances in more than one Vantage account these will be considered separately when calculating the tiered interest for each account.

*The interest rates shown apply to money held in each tier, not the account balance as a whole. This is because clients will receive a blended rate overall depending on how much money is held in each tier. The gross, net and Annual Equivalent Rates shown should not therefore be used for comparative purposes against other accounts.

The gross rate is the agreed rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law. The HMRC makes a 20% flat charge on interest paid on cash held in the ISA so it is paid net. AER means Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest would be if interest was paid and compounded each year. Rates correct as at 08/10/2008. Interest rates are variable and not guaranteed.
