  • Bank of England rate hold benefits UK cash savers short term
    June 26, 2026, 2:09 AM EDT. The Bank of England maintained its Bank Rate at 3.75%, signalling higher interest rates for longer.

However, upcoming tax rules effective April 2027 will reduce the annual cash ISA allowance for under-65s from £20,000 to £12,000, requiring savers to invest £8,000 in stocks and shares ISAs to maintain the full tax-free ISA allowance. This creates an important planning window for savers considering long-term tax implications amid potential future policy shifts.
