What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a £1,000 deposit?

The estimation below assumes your account is opened on 1 January with no additional deposits, withdrawals, transactions or interest rate changes and interest is then paid gross on 31 December.

  • The balance after 12 months on an initial deposit of £1,000.00 with an interest rate of 4.10% gross/AER (variable) would be £1,041.00.

This projection is for illustrative purposes only.
