Our Expert Opinion on Secure Trust Bank Access Account

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

Secure Trust Bank's Access Account pays 3.75%, which is below the easy access market average and 1.25% behind the category leader at 5.00%, so I would not call this a standout rate. It does at least beat CPI inflation of 3.1% by 0.65%, which means your money is growing in real terms. The account accepts deposits from £1 up to £250,000 with instant access, which suits savers who want flexibility across a wide balance range. If you want the same 3.75% with arguably stronger backing, the NS&I Direct Saver is worth a look.
