Our Expert Opinion on RCI Bank 4 Years Fixed

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

RCI Bank's 4 Years Fixed pays 4.40%, which is below the market average for fixed-rate savings and sits 0.95% behind the current leader at 5.35%. Against August 2026 CPI of 3.1% it does at least return a real 1.30% above inflation, so your money is not losing purchasing power, but savers who shop around can do better: Aldermore's 4 Year Fixed Rate Savings Account pays 5.17%. The bigger catch is that your money is completely locked away for four years with no access until maturity, so this suits someone confident they will not need up to £1,000,000 for the full term.
