Increase in UK FSCS Deposit Protection to £120,000 – what does this mean for you?
Looking after your savings is important and so is knowing they’re safe. The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) deposit protection limit for eligible deposits has increased from £85,000 to £120,000 for each person as of 1 December 2025.
Some life events can give you a lot of money, for a short time. For example, selling your home or receiving an inheritance can do this. For these situations, the FSCS offers Temporary High Balance (THB) protection for up to six months. The THB limit has also increased from £1 million to £1.4 million.
