The final details of the savings and investment account (SIA), released today as part of Budget 2027, are broadly in line with expectations and will provide a long-term platform for investment in a more tax-efficient manner. We reiterate our view that the impact on deposits will be manageable, factoring in the annual contribution amounts, with long-term benefits from deeper customer relationships. Elsewhere, the bank levy remains unchanged and has been rolled over for another year, with an increase in the Help-to-Buy rebate also announced.
