Where to get 6% on your savings
UK easy-access savings accounts currently pay up to around 5% AER, with fixed-rate bonds going slightly higher. For tax-free growth, use a Cash ISA (up to £20,000/year) before a standard savings account.
Faster to your goal
- Increase your rate — a 1% higher rate can save you years.
- Set up a standing order on payday so saving happens automatically.
- Use a Stocks & Shares ISA for long horizons (10+ years) to chase higher returns.
