Maximise your Tax Free Savings with Scottish Friendly

The Government lets you save up to £25 a month with a friendly society even if you have already used up the allowance with an ISA.
This means that the current options offered by “Scottish Friendly” could help you to save for a rainy day – and if we were all doing this more often, wouldn’t the banking world be in a little less turmoil right now?!
Here is what Scottish Friendly say of their offering:
Scottish Friendly, one of the UK’s leading friendly societies, provides savings plans that allow you to make the most of your tax-free allowance. The Government lets you invest up to £25 a month tax-free with a friendly society, even if you already have an ISA. You can save for a rainy day via our Scottish Bond or start building for your child’s future through our Child Bond.
They have 2 main options:
1) The Child Bond – which is effectively a way to save money for your child (i.e. for college or university fund, or just an amount to give to baby when he turns 18); or
2) The Scottish Bond which is a 10 year bond that will pay interest (tax free) on up to £25 per month investment, and contains some small element of life cover too.
