    Tax reporting

    Interest is paid gross without the deduction of tax. It is your responsibility to report earnings to the appropriate tax authorities. However, all the interest you earn from your accounts may be subject to reporting to relevant tax authorities.

    AER (Annual Equivalent Rate)

    AER (Annual Equivalent Rate) is a notional interest rate which illustrates what the gross rate would be if interest were paid and compounded each year.

    The gross rate refers to the interest rate before the deduction of tax applicable to interest on savings accounts.
