4.6%AER / Gross (this savings account offers expected profit rather than interest as it follows Sharia principles).

Since it was founded in 2004, Al Rayan Bank has always met the expected profit rate it has quoted to customers.

AER is the Annual Equivalent Rate and represents what the expected profit rate would be if profit was realised and paid once each year.Profit is calculated daily, reinvested annually and is payable on maturity. Profit will be paid gross without prior deduction of tax.

The rate applicable to your savings account is fixed once your application is approved and you fund your account. The rate will stay the same throughout the duration of the fixed term. Should the bank amend the rate advertised before you have fully transferred funds and the rate is lower than the rate you originally ordered, you will have 14 days to cancel your application, and your original deposit amount will be returned to your Transaction Account. We will contact you if this occurs.

Please ensure you log in and check your Raisin UK Account during the funding process.

In the very unlikely event that the expected profit rate will not be met after you have purchased the product, Raisin UK will contact you advising of the new expected profit rate. You will then have the option to accept the new profit rate or terminate this agreement immediately upon which Al Rayan Bank will return the original deposit with the accrued profit up to that date.

If your deposit amount returns a loss, Al Rayan Bank shall offer to make good the amount of any shortfall that you may have suffered. Al Rayan Bank is required by current UK banking regulations to make this offer to you. You shall therefore be entitled, should you choose to accept this offer, to receive payment from Al Rayan Bank of the full amount that you had previously deposited.

You are entitled to refuse this offer. You will be able to do so by logging into your Raisin UK customer portal and opting out. We would like to draw your attention to the guidance offered by the Al Rayan Bank Sharia Supervisory Board. The guidance is that if Al Rayan Bank is required to make good the amount of any shortfall (set out above) and you accept this offer, this will not comply with Sharia principles.

Please note, for renewal orders the rate you will receive will be confirmed as the rate available 5 days before the date of maturity. Please see our FAQs for more information.

Because this savings account is a fixed term deposit, withdrawals are not permitted before the maturity date, except if an account holder dies or becomes bankrupt. This savings account does NOT operate on the basis that you can end the fixed term of your savings account prematurely and pay a fee to withdraw your funds sooner.

Your savings account will not automatically renew at the end of the fixed term for a further fixed term. At the end of the fixed term, unless you elect to renew your savings account with us, we will credit the profit that has accrued into your Raisin UK Account.

Meteor Asset Management (MAM), with their administration arm Meteor Investment Management (MIM), will administer the deposit on your behalf.

Funds will appear in MIM’s account by the following business day from funding your application at the latest. Funds will be remitted to Al Rayan Bank by MIM on the next business day after arriving in the MIM account. It can therefore take up to 2 business days for an ordered product to be set up and start earning profit.

All cash in transit and deposits once established, will be held by MIM and MAM in trust for you under FCA client money and asset rules. Please see the Meteor Asset Management Raisin UK Deposit Terms and Conditions for further details.

Shari’a banking, also known as Islamic banking, covers any financial activity that complies with Shari’a principles, reflecting the belief that exploitative gains, such as earning interest on money, are prohibited. Subsequently, Shari’a savings accounts use the money from deposits to invest and generate a profit, rather than an interest rate. There are no restrictions on who can apply for a Shari’a savings account.
