Protecting your money
Your eligible deposits of up to £85,000 are protected under the UK's Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
Interest (where applicable) is calculated daily and paid on a monthly basis and differs between currencies. See a full list of interest rates below for more details.
This account is designed for moving money through different currencies, no notice required.
Our Private Bank savings accounts are overseen by your Private Banker, but can also be managed by you via Investec Online or the Investec App.
**Rates differ between currencies. See our full details below. If you don't meet the criteria to become a Private Banking client, you can still earn a competitive interest rate on amounts between £5k and £250k by opening an Investec Save account.
Can you lock your money away for longer?
We offer one and three month notice savings accounts that pay a higher interest rate in return for you needing to give us one or three months' notice to make a withdrawal.
