SavingsAI Editorial Team

Independent finance professionals delivering unbiased UK savings rate analysis since 2025

Who We Are

The SavingsAI Editorial Team is made up of finance professionals with over 20 years of combined experience in UK banking, savings products, and financial regulation. Our backgrounds span retail banking, wealth management, and financial services compliance — including formerly Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) licensed practitioners with direct experience in regulated deposit and investment markets.

We built SavingsAI because we observed a clear gap: UK savers were leaving significant sums in low-interest accounts not due to lack of better options, but due to the complexity and opacity of the savings market. Our goal is to cut through that noise with factual, daily-updated rate comparisons — no commissions, no bias.

Editorial Standards

Every article published on SavingsAI follows a strict editorial process. We do not accept payment for editorial coverage, do not receive commission from banks, and do not allow advertising relationships to influence our rate rankings or editorial conclusions.

Our content is reviewed for factual accuracy before publication and updated whenever rate data or regulatory information changes. We cite primary sources — Bank of England publications, FSCS official announcements, FCA guidance — wherever claims are made.

Independence Commitment: We earn no referral fees or affiliate income from any bank or savings provider featured on this site. Our rankings are determined solely by AER as published by each institution.

How We Track Rates

1

Daily Data Collection

We collect published AER rates directly from bank websites and official product pages every day. Rates are recorded with timestamp and source URL for auditability.

2

Verification

Rates are cross-checked against bank product disclosure documents and comparison tables. Any discrepancy triggers a manual review before the rate is published.

3

FSCS Eligibility Check

We only list accounts from FCA-regulated institutions covered by the FSCS. Non-FSCS-protected products are excluded regardless of rate.

4

Change Detection

Our system compares each day's rates against the previous day's snapshot. Rate changes of 0.05% AER or greater trigger a push notification to subscribed users.

5

Editorial Review

Market-moving changes or significant new products prompt a written analysis published to the blog, reviewed by a team member with relevant sector experience.
