adamrichardhaynes | Where's the best place for my money right now? |
I have a small amount of savings that I want to keep safe whilst still having ready access to and I'm not sure where to put it...in a bank, building society or suitcase under my bed? Those banks offering 100% cover for savings are reluctant to accept new deposits. Any suggestions anyone? |

In the UK the safest place to put you money is the government owned National Savings and Investments or, ironically, Northern Rock, as it is government by the Treasury owned and deposits are guaranteed to an unlimited amount.
Next best seems to be HSBC, because it is the only British bank that has not loaned out more than it has on deposit. that is why it's share price has hardly dropped during the current crisis.
Nationwide, being a building society and so having inherently safe and careful lending rules, may also be a pretty safe place.
No where is absolutely 100% safe - even the Treasury could theoretically go bust, but that is about the least likely problem to happen. In your wallet or under your bed? No, you're still more likely to lose it, being mugged or burgled, than if you put it in one of the safer institutions.
I'd be surprise if financial institutions would refuse to accept new deposits. A major reason for the current problems for many of them is that they have loaned more than they currently have on deposit, so new deposits are exactly what they want. |

You would think banks would welcome depositers money!
I would say that the Government backed Northern Rock or National Savings[post office],are the best bet.
I'm putting some of my savings into premimum bonds for a year,I won't get any interest,but if I'm lucky I may win something.After a year I will move it out into a high interest account.By then all of this financial mess will be a distant memory.....lol
good luck |

The market is kinda chaotic right now, my stocks are at a record low. If i were you i would put my money in energy before the economy bouces back. You stand to make quite a bit when the market starts comming around if you invest now. |

Nothern Rock....you cant get any safer than that, but all savings are covered upto £50,000 anyway by the FSA so i wouldnt worry to much about that. |

I think the Banks are much better... and try to choose a good bank that it has a small probability of bankrupcy :)

if you have less than £35,000 in savings it is guaranteed by the government.
Otherwise...
Buy a safe... you can get a cheap one for £20 or less if you dont want to spend too much.

If it's (1) a small amount and (2) you need ready access to it, you should just leave it in the savings account. I'm assuming you don't have to pay any fees or anything to keep the account active.
Though it might not earn a lot of interest, you shouldn't lose anything. Unless it's a larger amount and/or you can do without immediate access to it, you shouldn't need to worry about moving it around right now.
If you're really worried, you might just want to take a quick glance at recent info on your bank and make sure it's not in significant individual troubles for some reason. |

If it is less than £50,000, then I think you can safely put your money in almost any savings account with a bank that is regulated by the FSA which offers you a good deal because the Government isn't going to let any bank go down without helping it with loans and in the worst case scenario is the bank does go bust, your savings are still guaranteed. |
