Nationwide Building Society has announced a wave of interest rate increases across its savings accounts.
The building society confirmed the launch of new issues of its Fixed Rate Online Bonds, Fixed Rate Branch Bonds and Fixed Rate ISAs.
Over the past year, banks and building societies have raised interest rates following the Bank of England’s decision to hike the base rate.
Central banks have hiked rates in an attempt to rein in inflation which has been diminishing returns for savers.
This latest launch is the latest attempt by Nationwide to help savers boost their savings.

Last year, Tom Riley, the director of Retail Products at Nationwide Building Society, shared why the financial institution is opting to raise rates during a challenging economic time.
He explained: “We continue to keep our savings rates under regular review in this fast-changing market and we remain committed to supporting savers with the best rates we can sustainably afford.
“As a result, we’ve made a number of rate increases this year to both our off-sale and on-sale savings ranges.
“In fact, in recent months, our average deposit rate has been at least 70 percent higher than the market average.”
