Definitions:
- AER stands for annual equivalent rate. A notional rate which illustrates what the gross rate would be if interest was paid and compounded each year
- Gross is the contractual rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law.
- Small Business Banking customers are typically small enterprises (including not-for-profits) with borrowing needs of up to £100k. Their everyday transactional banking products and needs wouldn’t require the support of a Relationship Manager. (Government lending schemes are subject to different limits.)
- Business Banking customers are typically small and medium sized enterprises (including not-for-profits) with product needs that require support through a dedicated Relationship Manager, who work alongside our specialist teams. Our Relationship Managers can provide transactional banking and funding solutions of over £100k (both domestically and internationally).
- Corporate Banking Customer means any business customer whose accounts are held with us in the UK, which isn’t a Small Business Banking or a Business Banking Customer.
