Replacement for 1 Year Savings Bonds if Interest Rates start to fall.

Bulwark · 2025-08-14 13:02:01

I was wondering if anyone has a view on iShares Core GBP Corporate Bond UCITS ETF to use instead of One year Savings Bonds if/as interest rates fall - or is there something better ? Robert

Mentioning the Royal London funds is useful because with CGT now 18%, CSH2 has lost some of its lustre. Of the four funds below, the benchmarks are:
CSH2 (Amundi) and RL STMM: SONIA

RL Short Term Fixed Income: SONIA + 0.5%

RL Short Term Fixed Income Enhanced: SONIA + 1%.
