Long-Term Savings

There are many investment opportunities available for savers, some offering instant access, others requiring notice before you are able to access your funds, and some requiring a minimum investment and/or a minimum investment period. Long-term savings accounts or investments aim to encourage long-term saving, usually offering more generous investment returns than regular saving investments in exchange for restricted access to your funds. Long-term saving opportunities have no one set investment period: you may be offered an account that pays high interest on funds for one year, or savings that require a minimum investment period of five or twenty-five years.
