Al Rayan Bank: 12 months Fixed Term Deposit

What is the expected profit rate?

4.40%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.

Can Al Rayan Bank change the profit rate?

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.

What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a £1000.00 deposit?

The estimated balance after 12 months on a deposit of £1000.00 is £1,044.00.

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.

Security & Deposit Protection

The FSCS is the United Kingdom's statutory deposit guarantee scheme that covers deposits in individual savings accounts up to £85,000, per banking group regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority or the Prudential Regulation Authority. It is available for deposits with most UK high-street and online banks and means if the bank fails, and deposits become unavailable, the scheme may cover your deposit account deposit up to the £85,000 per person, per banking group limit. Compensation limits are per person per firm, not per deposit. Be aware that if you have other deposits with this bank (or banking group) then the £85,000 protection applies only to eligible deposits up to this limit.

The minimum investment amount depends on the partner bank.
The services offered by Raisin Bank are provided free of charge. This includes opening and maintaining your Raisin Account, managing your international bank transfers (in euros), confirming your balance, sending statements, as well as our Customer Service in English.

A deposit account is a savings product which allows you to make an investment of a certain amount for a fixed period of time and at a fixed interest rate, with all parameters being agreed to before entering into the contract. At Raisin Bank, we offer terms ranging from 3 months to 5 years. As a general rule, the interest you will earn will be higher the longer the period for which you deposit your money.
As a resident of Ireland, you will have to declare the interest earned on the deposits you sign up for through Raisin Bank when filing your income tax return. Depending on the product’s country of origin, it is possible this country will apply a withholding tax to the interest generated. However, in most European countries, you will be able to claim back this withholding tax by sending us a certificate of tax residence in Ireland. For countries where the withholding tax cannot be claimed back, you will be able to compensate for the amount when filing your annual tax return in Ireland. You will therefore never be taxed twice on the interest earned through Raisin Bank’s products. To find out more about how the products you take out with Raisin Bank are taxed, please consult our tax guide.
No – Raisin Bank does not withhold any taxes on interest earned. Interest income is earned at the relevant partner bank where you hold your deposit account and will be subject to double taxation agreements between your home country and the country of the term deposit investment. At the end of the term you will receive documents from the partner bank with all the information needed for your income tax declaration. Please note that you will be solely responsible for properly filing your tax returns in your home country.
