Despite the recent interest rate cut, many fixed-rate bond or easy-access account rates have held up longer than expected Savers are being urged to shop around and move fast if they want to get hold of one of the competitive deals still available. These include one-year fixed-rate savings bonds paying up to 4.35% and an easy-access account with a rate of 4.5%.
