Yorkshire Building Society is set to launch a new two-year fixed rate bond paying 3.95% gross/AER.

Offering a best buy, the new account can be opened at any of the Yorkshire's branches or agencies from Monday (18th).

Commenting on the bond, Yorkshire's Savings Product Manager Mike Helliwell said: "While interest rates remain low this bond offers a really competitive rate that will give new and existing customers an excellent return on their investment.

"Available in our branch network and via our online and telephone systems, the bond is easy to open and provides certainty of a rate of return for two years with a maturity date of April 2013."

A monthly interest option is available for those who rely on their savings for income.
