Rachel Springall, a finance expert at Moneyfactscompare.co.uk, broke down the current state of the savings market.

She explained: “The rate moves by providers within the savings market were mixed week-on-week, but there was a notable hit to short-term fixed bonds. Those looking for a guaranteed return on their investment will find a variety of top rate deals slashed, making it essential for savers to move quickly to grab a lucrative deal.

“Challenger banks continue to offer some of the best returns on the savings market, so these brands should not be overlooked in favour of the more familiar household names.

“As the Bank of England base rate fell further this will be disappointing news to hard-pressed savers. Consumers must be vigilant and monitor their savings pots closely and be sure to switch if their loyalty is not being rewarded.

“Outside of the Bank of England base rate, the swap rate market remains volatile, so providers will be conscious on how this may impact their future rate pricing in the weeks to come.”
