Frequently asked questions

What are business savings accounts?

Plus in a circle
Minus in a circle

They are accounts businesses can use to earn interest on money they don’t need to keep in a current account for day-to-day expenses. Most business current accounts do not pay interest on positive balances, so if you keep surplus cash in your business current account you are probably missing out on a simple way of making your money work harder and earning your business extra revenue.

What is the difference between a savings account and a current account?

Plus in a circle
Minus in a circle

A business savings account is very simple in that it allows you to set aside excess money in your business to keep it separate from the account you use for everyday income and expenditure and to earn interest on surplus money which would otherwise earn little or no interest in your current account. A business savings account doesn’t usually come with a payment card, cheque book, overdraft or other facilities a current account may offer.

Are there different types of business savings accounts?

Plus in a circle
Minus in a circle

There are three common types of savings account:rnrnu003cstrongu003eFixed term bondsu003c/strongu003e – These allow you to set aside a one-off sum for a specified length of time and earn an agreed rate of interest during that period. However, with most fixed term bonds, you cannot withdraw your money during the term of the bond, so you should only deposit funds you won’t need to access during that time.rnrnu003cstrongu003eNotice accountsu003c/strongu003e – These allow you to deposit funds whenever you wish and to earn an agreed variable rate of interest on your balance. However, you can only make withdrawals after giving the required notice. For example, with a 40-Day Notice Account you would have to request a withdrawal 40 days before you needed to have the money. These accounts offer more flexibility than fixed term bonds and usually pay a slightly lower interest rate as a result.rnrnu003cstrongu003eInstant access accountsu003c/strongu003e – These offer the greatest flexibility as you can withdraw your money at any time. However, these typically pay the lowest rates of interest of the three main types of business savings accounts. United Trust Bank don’t currently offer instant access accounts.
