Why should I transfer my ISAs to RateSetter?
You may feel let down by the fading returns from your Cash ISA, or be looking to avoid further volatility from your Stocks and Shares ISA.
RateSetter’s purpose is to make investing better by opening access to higher returns from peer-to-peer lending. Investors received an average return of 3.9% with RateSetter over the last 12 months, and thanks to our Provision Fund, to date, every individual investor has received the interest and capital that they expected. However, this does not provide a guarantee.
Compare the returns from your existing ISAs and see what you could earn if you transferred to RateSetter. It is always sensible to check the rate you are earning on your ISA and shop around for the combination of risk and return that suits you best.
