Everyone’s a bit different in the way they save. That’s why we’ve got lots of different account options so you can save the way you want with an account that suits your needs. What kind of saver are you?

– What are your savings goals – how much and by when? – Are you able to save regularly or just from time to time? – How often do you think you might need to dip into your

savings? – Can you pay less tax on your savings and reach your goals

faster?

With this in mind, follow the flow chart on page 4 to help see which savings option is likely to best suit you.
