Reza Attar-Zadeh, Director of Savings and Investments,
said:
“Structured products are designed for those looking to
invest for the longer term, offering potentially greater returns
than those currently available on standard href="products.santander.co.uk/savingsandinvestments.html">cash
based savings accounts.  

“The protected return of capital is provided by Santander UK
plc, which is currently rated ‘AA-stable’ by Fitch, thus giving
savers the additional reassurance that their money is with a
financially safe and secure bank.”

These offers are only available for a limited time and investors
who wish to apply can visit a Santander branch to book an
appointment with a Financial Advisor.
