Marcus by Goldman Sachs® Re-enters Saving Chart

Share In a week where challenger bank Marcus by Goldman Sachs® made headlines by re-entering the easy access savings chart with its Online Savings Account, challenger banks continue to dominate the savings charts. In fact, our research has found that challenger banks offer the highest average rates in both the easy access savings account and fixed rate bond charts, meaning that savers who have stayed with a high street bank may likely be missing out on the best rates. Average easy access rates For example, the average rate being offered by a challenger bank on an easy access saving account was 0.39% AER on the 1 January 2021, this compares to an average rate of just 0.15% AER being offered by high street banks on the same day. This means that a saver who had put £5,000 into a high street savings account, for example, would get an average return of £7.50 per year, whereas those who had put their savings into a challenger bank would get an average of £19.50 per year.

How savers get the best short-term fixed saving rates

Share Fixed rate bonds have often been popular with savers as they not only offer a fixed rate for the duration of their term, but also usually offer the best savings rates overall. Indeed, today the top saving rate is available on a five year fixed rate bond, but with saving rates across the charts at record lows, many savers are reluctant to lock into a long-term bond due to future uncertainty and concerns that a rise in inflation will erode their savings. This concern is not unfounded, as the top rate being offered in the fixed bond chart is below the Bank of England’s target inflation rate of 2%. Gatehouse Bank currently pays an expected profit rate of 1.50% AER on its five-year account, which if a saver locked into and the Bank of England meets its target rate of inflation, would result in the saver’s deposit being eroded by inflation.
