Skipton Building Society is launching a new 18-month bond at 6.5 per cent.
The Easter Bond is fixed at 6.50 per cent gross pa until September 15th 2009, while the monthly income option is available at 6.25 per cent gross pa.
The minimum investment is £500 and the maximum is £50,000. Additional investment is allowed until the bond is fully subscribed and becomes a closed issue.
Steve Aldous, general manager of Skipton, said: "We’ve made a name for ourselves for offering top rates and our Easter Bond is no exception – but savers should hurry, because the limited edition and the great rate mean they could be more elusive than a sighting of the Easter Bunny."
