What is the interest rate?
4.91 % AER

4.91% AER / 4.80% gross

AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate. This shows you what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded monthly.

Gross is the rate of interest payable before income tax is deducted.

Interest is calculated daily and is paid into the Notice Account on the last day of each month, or upon closure of the Notice Account.

Interest will be paid gross without prior deduction of tax.

Can Monument Bank change the interest rate?

The interest rate applicable to your deposit is variable. Should the bank set a date to lower the interest rate, you will be given a minimum of 40 days’ notice. Should the bank set a date to increase the interest rate, customers will be notified within 40 days of the increase. Please review the Meteor Asset Management (MAM) Terms and Conditions for more information.
