Our Expert Opinion on Shawbrook 2 Year Fixed Rate Bond

Shawbrook's 2 Year Fixed Rate Bond at 4.96% is a solid pick for savers who have at least £1,000 sitting idle and want a predictable return over a defined period, with the flexibility of choosing monthly or annual interest payments. The main catch is straightforward: your money is completely locked away for two years with no access until maturity, so only commit funds you genuinely will not need. If you want to squeeze out a little more, I would still check Close Brothers Savings, which is currently offering 5.02% on the same two-year term.
