What was arguably the main benefit of saving money in an ISA?
• With many savings accounts, tax has to be paid on the interest
• ‘Gross’ p.a. – Interest rate BEFORE tax
is deducted
• ‘Net’ p.a.– Interest rate AFTER tax is
deducted

Annual Equivalent Rate
AER • AER of interest is given so that
the interest rate on different savings accounts can be accurately compared
AER removes– Effect of compounding interest
(interest earned on interest already received)
– Effect of promotional offers that may disappear after a few months
Tricky concept!
