*Gross stands for contractual rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law.

**AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year.

The Allied Irish Bank (GB) Base Rate can go up or down. The Allied Irish Bank (GB) Base Rate is typically the same as the Bank of England Base Rate, although this may not always be the case.  Deposit accounts with a rate of interest linked to the Allied Irish Bank (GB) Base Rate will move in accordance with our base rate changes.

All rates are variable (can change from time to time) unless stated otherwise.

From the 6 April 2016 credit interest on all accounts will be paid gross (under new legislation tax will not be deducted when credit interest is paid). If your credit interest is more than your Personal Savings Allowance you may still have tax to pay. Please see www.gov.uk for information on the Personal Savings Allowance or speak to a tax advisor.
