Castle Trust, Fortress bonds

Options
Has anyone any experience of the Castle trust and their Fortress bonds. Interest rates seem better than many at 4.5% over 5 years, 3 years at 4% but eligible for an ISA which beats NS&I pensioner bonds.

They don't seem to appear on this site. Interestingly a google ad for them appeared when searching the forum!



thanks

    Click the link above that says "forum search" and search the savings and investments board for castle trust and/or fortress bonds. There's more than one recent thread.

    They are riskier than pensioner bonds or bank accounts because you might lose your money. So you can put them in a stocks and shares ISA, but not a cash ISA. There are plenty of shares and bonds and investment funds that can be held in a stocks and shares ISA if you are willing to risk your capital.
