NS&I Inflation Beating Savings new Issues

NS&I (National Savings and Investments) is releasing new Issues of its Inflation-Beating Savings (also known as Index-linked Savings Certificates). The new Issues, sold in 3 and 5-year terms, will be available to savers from Wednesday 7 April 2010.

On each anniversary the value of Index-linked Savings Certificates moves in line with inflation as measured by the Retail Prices Index (RPI), and the guaranteed interest is added as well. The Certificates are designed to be held for the whole investment term to receive the full guaranteed compound interest, as the guaranteed rates of extra interest increase each year during the term.
