Product Summary

Our Direct Saver Fixed Rate Bond offers you protection from the ups and downs of interest rates by giving you a fixed rate of interest for the full term of your investment. Upon maturity the account will become a no notice access account. We will let you know the rate of this account prior to maturity. You will not be able to make any additional deposits into this account.

Direct Saver Fixed Rate Bond is available for the personal use of all Republic of Ireland residents aged 18 years or over. Savers can choose to have their interest paid annually or monthly, and you can also have access to your money (subject to a charge).

To take advantage you must invest right away. This Bond is a strictly limited issue and will be withdrawn once fully subscribed, so we can't guarantee availability for everyone.
