More choice for savers with Yorkshire’s three year savings bond

Yorkshire Building Society is launching a new three year fixed rate bond paying 4.05% gross/AER. Offering a best buy, the new account can be opened at any of the Yorkshire's branches or agencies.

Commenting on the bond, Yorkshire's Savings Product Manager Mike Helliwell said: "Adding this three year bond to our range of fixed rate savings products offers customers more choice.

"The latest bond offers a competitive return while interest rates remain low and a certainty of rate or return for three years with a maturity date of May 2014."

A monthly interest option is available for those who rely on their savings for income and the minimum investment is £1,000.
