Our Expert Opinion on Loughborough Building Society Junior ISA

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

Loughborough Building Society's Junior ISA pays 3.65%, which sits above the Junior ISA market average but is 0.50% behind the category leader at 4.15%, so it is a decent but not outstanding choice. The rate does beat August 2026 CPI of 3.1% by 0.55%, meaning the money grows in real terms, which matters for a long-horizon account like this. If you want to squeeze out a little more, NS&I's Junior ISA pays 3.70% or OakNorth Bank's Junior Cash ISA pays 3.73%. The key constraint here is the one baked into all Junior ISAs: no withdrawals until the child turns 18.
