Our Expert Opinion on Progressive Building Society 1 Year Fixed Rate Access Bond

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

Progressive Building Society's 1 Year Fixed Rate Access Bond pays 4.75%, which beats CPI inflation of 3.1% by 1.65 percentage points, but it sits below the market average for fixed-rate accounts and trails the category leader by 0.62%. The £1 minimum makes it accessible, though the £5,000,000 ceiling suits most savers. The real catch is no access until maturity, so only commit money you can lock away. Atom Bank's 1 Year Fixed Saver at 4.90% is worth a look if you want a better one-year rate.
