Our Expert Opinion on Nottingham Building Society 2 Year Fixed Rate Bond

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

Nottingham Building Society's 2 Year Fixed Rate Bond pays 4.70%, which sits below the market average for fixed-rate accounts and 0.65% behind the current market leader at 5.35%, so this is not where I would start my search. That said, 4.70% does beat August 2026 CPI of 3.1% by 1.60%, meaning your money grows in real terms. The genuine catch is the complete lock-in until 30 August 2028 with no access whatsoever, and with a minimum of just £1 it is open to almost anyone. I would look at Kent Reliance's 2 Year Fixed Rate Bond at 4.91% first.
