If you can afford to lock your money away for a fixed amount of time, consider the benefits of a Barclays fixed rate bond. This will allow you to earn competitive rates of interest, giving you reassurance of a fixed return which is not reliant on the fluid Bank rate.
With interest rates continuously fluctuating, a fixed rate bond will protect you against falling rates, so the best time to apply for one of these savings accounts is when rates have peaked and are expected to fall, as the rate cuts would not reflect the rate at which you are earning on your balance.
