Good deals on savings accounts are still available in the UK, despite the Bank of England's recent decision to cut the base rate of interest, it has been claimed.
Abbey is convinced that its customers, many of whom are saving for children, can benefit from competitive deals in a number of product categories.
Products highlighted by the financial services firm as offering particularly competitive rates for consumers in the UK, include those in the individual savings account (Isa) category.
"We believe our regular monthly saver deals and Super Isa and Super Bond - neither of which have fallen following the recent base rate cut - offer excellent rates currently," said Abbey's head of savings Reza Attar-Zedeh.
"Additionally, they encourage the disciplines of both regular investing and taking a long term view on savings and investing."
Earlier this week, Abbey encouraged UK consumers to conduct a thorough review of their personal finances in the early part of the new year.
