* GROSS RATE – The contractual rate of interest payable before deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law.

** AER RATE – AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and is the notional rate which illustrates the gross rate as if it was paid and compounded once each year. As every advertisement for a savings product will contain an AER you can compare more easily what return you can expect from your savings over time.

Offshore banking tends to suit you if you:

  • Work in a cabin crew, on a cruise ship or are a holiday rep
  • Are an ex-pat living abroad
  • Look into saving tax on your interest payments

A good offshore banking account should offer the following benefits:

  • Access to your cash from anywhere in the world at anytime
  • The ability to send and receive money internationally
  • A choice of currencies
