Open a EUR currency savings account

EU nationals living and working in the UK or abroad, clients who own European properties or those being paid in euros should seriously consider opening a euro savings account with us. We offer a great range of euro savings accounts.

For a tiered savings account in euros, you could open an International Tracker Account. And for our best euro savings account for long term cash returns, it is worth finding out about our Liquidity Management Service, available for those with the euro equivalent of £1,000,000 or more to invest.

We also offer euro fixed-term deposit accounts, such as Treasury Deposits which offer a fixed rate of interest over a choice of terms. For more information on Barclays international banking euro savings products, which can all be held as offshore savings accounts, call us on

Euro currency savings - banking benefits

The first and most important benefit of euro savings is to reduce exchange risk and administration costs if your main assets or income are in euros. With certain savings products, like our Treasury Deposits, you are also protected from changes in currency interest rates, as you deposit your savings for a fixed term at a fixed rate.

Saving in euros may also give you the opportunity to take advantage of the relative strength of the euro against your home currency or other currencies.

Euro savings account options

We offer four main savings accounts which can be held in euros:

• Treasury Deposits
• Liquidity Management Services
• Currency Call Deposits

Treasury Deposits

Our fixed-term, guaranteed interest rate deposit account. With competitive fixed interest rates that depend on the size and term of your deposit.

Liquidity Management Service

This service invests your money in funds, third party deposit accounts and fiduciary deposits. It's an excellent way to manage your cash as an asset. And, depending on your status, we could help you to structure the products you choose in a tax-efficient way*.

Currency Call Deposit Account

This is our instant access deposit account. Interest is paid on balances over US$3,000 (or its euro equivalent).

Euro savings account interest

For Currency Call Deposit accounts, interest is paid quarterly. Treasury Deposit interest rates are fixed when you open the deposit account and interest is paid on maturity. As the rates for these products change daily, please contact us for an indication of rates on these products.

Before you open a euro savings account, you need to open one of our three banking services:

• Relationship Manager Service
• iBank
• iBank Saver

All the savings and investment products outlined here come under the umbrella of the iBank Saver service. Opening an iBank Saver account is therefore your route to the full range of Barclays international banking savings and investments accounts, which you can then manage through International Telephone and Online Banking^†.
