Best fixed rate bonds


Best fixed rate bonds of 2012, fixed rate bonds of 2,3 and 5 years and take advantage of the better interest rates offered by locking your money away for a fixed period of time.  
These types of savings accounts often will pay you the highest rate of interest. You invest your money into a bank or building society for a set period of time, usually a number of years.
Banks and building societies will usually pay a higher interest rate than a regular savings bank account because you are locking your money in for a set period of time. If you want to take your money out before the fixed rate bond time limit has elapsed you may well be penalised with loss of interest or even account closure, so read the small print with care.
