Regular Saver

The Savings Accounts Terms and Conditions (effective 1 December 2012) state that any Regular Saver account opened on or after 1 December 2012 will have a maximum monthly subscription limit of £200. This is not correct. Accounts opened on or after 1 December 2012 will have a maximum monthly subscription limit of £250. For these accounts, please therefore read '£250' for '£200' in clause 3 of the Savings Accounts Terms and Conditions. The subscription limits may change for future Regular Saver accounts you open, but we will tell you if this is the case.

Definitions

# Only available to those resident and ordinarily resident in the UK.

† Private Clients Savings Account customers also receive these credit rates. Please note that this account is no longer sold. Investment Management (HSBC Premier Financial Advice): Debit Interest on outstanding overdrawn balances is calculated daily at 3% above base rate.

AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate. This shows you what the gross rate would be if interest were paid and compounded each year.

Net is the interest rate you'll receive after applicable tax has been deducted, currently 20%. Higher rate tax payer will have an additional liability.

Gross is the interest rate you'll receive before applicable tax is deducted from your account.

Tax free means free from UK Income tax and Capital Gains tax.

ISA stands for Individual Savings Account.

ESD The rate before deduction of tax applicable to interest on savings accounts. If your account is based in one of our Channel Island or Isle of Man branches, credit interest may be subject to a retention tax. As an alternative you can opt to have your account details reported ultimately to your local tax authority.

All rates are variable unless otherwise indicated.
