The new issue of a 1-year Fixed Rate Deposit Account from Britannia International offers investors interest rates of up to 3.00%. Issue 25, which was made available On 26th February to personal depositors, requires a minimum investment of ?5,000. Depositors are offered the choice of receiving interest payments on a monthly basis or upon maturity. The Issue is limited and will be withdrawn once it is fully subscribed. Marketing Manager Wendy Shimmin comments, "With interest rates at a historic low - and potentially further cuts to come - this is a great opportunity to lock in to an attractive rate and gain the peace of mind of having a fixed return for the next twelve months".
