One of the best easy access accounts is offering 2.86 percent interest on savings | Personal Finance | Finance

The Zopa Smart Saver account currently ranks top of the list when it comes to easy access accounts, offering an Annual Equivalent Rate (AER) of 2.86 percent on savings up to £85,000.

James Blower, head of Savings at Zopa, recently told Express.co.uk that it’s now more important than ever that savers look for the best deals.

He said: “For people looking to create better habits around savings, the easiest way is to set aside a few minutes every month to check comparison websites and get a feel for the best rates and deals available.

“Those with larger savings balances could benefit from checking rates and switching more frequently, as the savings market can move fast and getting the right deal at the right time could ensure better returns.”
