03: Other National Savings products

Like other deposit-based investments, taxable National Savings accounts or bonds may be suitable for non-taxpayers or starting rate taxpayers. However, sometimes taxable bonds can offer a better return than tax-free certificates – as happened for a period of a little more than three weeks when new two-year growth bonds were launched in October 2009.

Some taxable National Savings products pay interest gross.
