What our clients say

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the answers to a few of the things we get asked most. Visit the FAQ page to see more.

What is Welcome Saver?

Welcome Saver is an easy access savings account that is available exclusively to clients who are new to Monument. You can withdraw your savings or top up your account whenever you like, with 24/7 access. The account lasts for 12 months from the date you open it, after which it will mature into an Easy Access Tracker account.

The Easy Access Tracker will pay a variable interest rate that tracks the Bank of England base rate. The margin relative to the base rate, and the minimum rate (the floor), that will apply to your Easy Access Tracker are set out in your Summary Box.

Who is Monument?

Monument is a fully regulated, UK bank built to help you manage, grow and enjoy your wealth.

More than 100,000 clients save with Monument and benefit from our UK-based client servicing team.

Your money is protected up to £120,000 by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).

Am I eligible for this account?

The Welcome Saver is available exclusively to clients who are new to Monument. To qualify, you must open this account within 14 days of becoming a Monument client.

Can the rate change?

Yes, the Welcome Saver interest rate is variable and may change. If we change the rate, we'll let you know by emailing you.

After 12 months your Welcome Saver will mature into an Easy Access Tracker. The Easy Access Tracker has a variable interest rate that tracks against the Bank of England base rate, which means it will increase or decrease with the Base Rate changes.

What is the minimum balance?

The minimum balance requirement is £25,000.

This is for the combined total across all of your Monument accounts. For example, if you have a Welcome Saver and a Notice Account with us, you must hold a minimum of £25,000 in total across both accounts.

What is the interest rate?

4.42% gross / 4.51% AER (variable) for 12 months

Rate effective 12 August 2026

Interest is calculated daily and paid monthly. Interest can be paid to your Linked Account or into your Welcome Saver.

After 12 months this account matures to an Easy Access Tracker. The final interest payment will be paid on the date the Welcome Saver matures.

The Easy Access Tracker will pay a variable interest rate that tracks the Bank of England base rate. The current rate tracks 0.50% below the base rate, subject to a minimum rate (floor) of 0.10%. To monitor the Bank of England base rate, visit www.bankofengland.co.uk.

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

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

Can Monument change the interest rate?

Yes, the interest rate is variable and may change.

We can change the interest rate at our discretion for any of the reasons detailed in Section 5 of our Welcome Saver Terms.

We will contact you if your rate is going up or going down. We will give you at least 14 days’ notice in advance of any rate reduction. If we increase the rate, we will apply it immediately and we will inform you of the increase within 30 days of it being made.

What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a £1,000 or £25,000 deposit?

£1,045.10 at an interest rate of 4.51% AER (variable)

£26,127.50 at an interest rate of 4.51% AER (variable)

For the purposes of this calculations we assume that:

  • You make a deposit of £1,000 or £25,000 on the account opening date.
  • You make no additional deposits or withdrawals.
  • The interest rate remains the same for 12 months.

At least 30 days before your Maturity Date, we'll remind you that your account is approaching the end of its 12-month term, with a further reminder around 10 days before. On your Maturity Date, your Welcome Saver will close and your balance (including your final interest payment) will transfer automatically to a new Easy Access Tracker account in your name. We'll confirm once this is done.

We do not deduct tax from any interest paid to you.

You will need to pay any tax you owe to HMRC or other Tax authorities applicable to you.
