Ok well I've just posted a question on the ISAs thread, but I also have a NS&I savings bond and at the same time as reviewing the ISAs noticed NS&I has performed really badly this year. Question is, what can I do with it? Where can I put that 3000 to rest and make interest whilst I am abroad?

Thanks

School is important, but Rugby is importanter.

    It is not clear what bond you have got? As an expat you are not permitted to put any more money in an ISA. Therefore, I would suggest you consider NS&I index linked saving certificates.
    In case you hadn't already worked it out - the entire global financial system is predicated on the assumption that you're an idiot:cool:

    You need to consider legal and tax requirements where you are resident - I assume you are declaring the NS & I bond and your ISAs to the local tax authorities?
