Our Managing Director of Savings Derek Sprawling explains in The Money Pages why the best headline savings rate might not always deliver the best returns. For higher-rate taxpayers with large balances, a cash ISA could be the better option. With approximately 70% of fixed-rate cash savings due to mature over the next year, he urges savers to start planning ahead. Find out why by reading the article below 👇 https://lnkd.in/edvxkKhw #savings #ISAs #cash

Savers have targeted cash ISAs during 2024 to protect their savings interest from tax, our analysis of the latest industry data shows. We looked at the growth in overall UK savings balances this year and found that 96% of the £28.9 billion increase has been into ISAs 📈 Savers have been seeking to shield their interest payments from tax as stronger rates boost returns. Recently published figures from the Government show that £10.4 billion is expected to be raised in tax from savings interest this tax year.
