For those savers looking for a good return over a period of less than 12 months, Derbyshire Offshore is also able to offer Money Market accounts, which at the moment reflect short term high rates in the markets.

A Derbyshire Offshore Money Market account is a premium investment with fixed rtes for the term of the deposit � the investment is available at one, two, three or six months with a minimum investment of �5,000 and a maximum of �2 million.

Fiona Passey, Director of Offshore Banking, Derbyshire Offshore, said: �We are always looking to help boost the savings of our customers and recent events in the market have enabled us to capitalise on opportunities available in order to set competitive fixed rates.

�During periods of interest rate volatility the reassurance of a guaranteed fixed rate can help with budgeting. Moreover, the monthly income option is a valuable tool for those savers who are retired.�
