Should the bank amend the rate advertised before you have fully transferred funds and the rate is lower than the rate you originally ordered, we will automatically cancel your order. We will contact you if this occurs. Please note, for renewal orders the rate you will receive will be confirmed as the rate available 5 days before the date of maturity. Please see our FAQs for more information.

Meteor Asset Management (MAM), through their administration arm MeteorInvestment Management (MIM), will administer the deposit on your behalf, whilst Meteor Trustees Limited (MTL), a wholly owned subsidiary of MAM will act as Bare Trustee.
