(Paid as 5.25% Gross)
AER is the Annual Equivalent Rate and represents what the interest rate would be if interest was realised and paid once each year.
Interest is calculated daily and is payable on maturity. Interest will be paid gross without prior deduction of tax, subject to UK tax regulation.
The interest rate applicable to your savings account is fixed once your application is approved and you fund your account. The rate will stay the same throughout the duration of the fixed term. Should the bank amend the rate advertised before you have fully transferred funds and the rate is lower than the rate you originally ordered, we will automatically cancel your order. We will contact you if this occurs.
The estimated balance after 12 months on a deposit of £1,000 is £1,052.50. This projection is for illustrative purposes only and does not take into account individual circumstances.

Because this savings account is a fixed term deposit, withdrawals are not permitted before the maturity date, except if an account holder dies, becomes mentally incapacitated or bankrupt, or in any other exceptional circumstances agreed to by Mizrahi Tefahot Bank Ltd in its absolute discretion. This savings account does NOT operate on the basis that you can end the fixed term of your savings account prematurely and pay a fee to withdraw your funds sooner.
Your savings account will not automatically renew at the end of the fixed term for a further fixed term.
Meteor Asset Management (MAM), with their administration arm Meteor Investment Management (MIM), will administer the deposit on your behalf.
Funds will appear in MIM’s account by the following business day from funding your application at the latest. Funds will be remitted to Mizrahi Tefahot Bank Ltd by MIM on the next business day after arriving in the MIM account. It can therefore take up to 2 business days for an ordered product to be set up and start earning interest.
All cash in transit and deposits once established, will be held by MIM and MAM in trust for you under FCA client money and asset rules.
