Additional Product Information	This is a limited issue bond which can be withdrawn by the Society without notice at any time. Once this bond has been withdrawn, no further deposits will be accepted. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded each year. The gross rate is the rate of interest payable before the deduction of tax. You will only need to pay tax on any savings income you earn above your Personal Savings Allowance. The Personal Savings Allowance applies to the total savings income you earn from all banks/building societies and not just from Monmouthshire Building Society. Visit HMRC website at www.hmrc.gov.uk for more information. The tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and may change in the future. Interest rate effective from 15th March 2023.
