Is a 5 year savings bond a good idea?

A 5 year savings bond locks in a guaranteed interest rate for five years, which can be appealing if you want certainty over your return and think rates may fall in the future.

The trade-off is that your money is tied up for a long time, so it suits savings you are confident you will not need and that you are happy to commit for the full term.

Can I withdraw from a 5 year bond early?

Most 5 year savings bonds do not allow early withdrawals, so you should treat the money as locked away for the full five years before you apply.

Because that is a long commitment, it is wise to keep an emergency fund in an easy access account so you are not forced to break the bond if your circumstances change.
