Bradford & Bingley FTSE 50/50 Bond launched

The Bradford & Bingley FTSE 50/50 Bond is a deposit-based savings account that splits a customer's investment in half.

The building society places 50 per cent of the investment in a one-year fixed term bond, which offers a gross interest rate of 7.5 per cent per annum.

Bradford & Bingley then places other half into a guaranteed equity bond that offers customers 100 per cent of the growth of the FTSE 100 index.

Should the FTSE 100 suffer a downturn, people who choose the product will have their capital investment returned.

Commenting on the Bradford & Bingley FTSE 50/50 Bond, Stephen Potter, head of savings at the building society, said: "This is a great product which offers investors the best available returns on this type of account."

He added that in "the current low interest rate environment", people who are looking for high returns and choose the Bradford & Bingley FTSE 50/50 Bond will be "rewarded by a great short-term fixed rate and any growth in the stock market over the longer term, whilst not sacrificing the security of their capital".

The Bradford & Bingley FTSE 50/50 requires a minimum investment of £1,000 and is a limited offer.
