    Hi everyone,

    I'm doing a financial project in college at the moment, part of it which involves finding two fixed interest deposit accounts over a period of ten years that I can invest a lump sum of money into. So far I have found one from Rabo Direct, but having thoroughly searched the internet at this stage, I am struggling to find another.

    Do any experts on here know of any other similar account over a period of ten years?

    I had a look at that, but the interest rates confused me. It said that the rate was like 3.8%, yet you received 1% every year :confused:

    Right so, is it 3.95% you receive every year or 1%?

    I'm only a student too so i'm probably not much help, but from the looks of it the National Solidarity Bond isn't a fixed income security. The interest is changing every year as it's cumulative and there are interest bonuses. Doesn't look very fixed to me...so i am also confused. It's probably called fixed as the interest rates set out at each year don't vary. If I were to use an interest rate it would be 3.95%
