Gatehouse Bank has relaunched its 1 Year fixed-term savings account with a market-leading expected profit rate of 2.10% AER. The move means two Gatehouse Bank savings accounts currently offer table-topping returns.
The Shariah-compliant bank’s 95 Day Notice Account offering an expected profit rate of 1.85% AER is also a Best Buy, and even trumps all the 120 Day Notice Accounts currently available on the market.
Gatehouse offers a further six savings products — three fixed-term and three notice accounts, with all accounts requiring a £1,000 minimum initial deposit.

Gatehouse Bank is a UK bank and the deposits it manages are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), up to £85,000 per person.

Charles Haresnape, CEO, Gatehouse Bank, commented:
“Times are still hard for savers but rates are slowly creeping up.
“Recently we’ve seen a little bit more competition in the market with providers trying to better each other. That is not only good news for savers but also the wider UK economy, as it means there are businesses and individuals looking for finance, and banks need to be on the front foot and appealing to savers by making rates more attractive.
“There’s also a growing appetite for different types of providers. Whereas Shariah-compliant finance used to be very niche, the competitive products now available from Shariah-compliant banks are attracting savvy savers from all backgrounds.”
