Vanguard are currently paying almost 3.1% on cash held in their accounts.See here: https://monevator.com/vanguard-cash-interest/. This is a decent rate for those who hold cash in their SIPP. If you are between 55 and 75, have no earned income and contribute £2880 net (£3600 gross) annually to your personal pension or SIPP and don`t invest and remain in cash (I`m not advocating cash is better than investing in the longer term) this is welcome news.

It’s paid monthly too and hits your account the 1st of the month generally.1

As I understand it, cash in an ISA, SIPP or a GIA get this interest.
Just parking cash in a GIA gets this deal and guessing no tax paid unless interest is over CGT limits.0 -
