People who are happy to save in cash ISAs will probably also be a lot more gullible when it comes to selling them loans, mortgages and credit cards.
The high interest rates available on current accounts are limited temporary loss-leaders to increase or may be just shore-up the banks' customer base. If too many people start taking advantage of them they will be constrained or removed. So overall any decrease in cash ISAs doesnt matter to the banks.0
