 There is an old saying that “cash is king”. Holding money in cash deposits such as bank or building society accounts has always been sensible.
It offers:
- Security
- Potential to earn inflation-beating returns
- A bedrock on which other capital investment can be built
But many investors overlook the opportunities available to help maximise returns from cash. A 1% per year improvement in interest on £100,000 is worth £1,000 every year. Over ten years this could be worth more than £15,000. It’s not just the interest that counts but the interest on the interest.
Choosing where to deposit your cash requires more than a quick glance at the newspaper "best buy" tables.
