Savings Guru Verdict
Chetwood Bank made a low key entry to the savings market in March 2019 with just a single 1 Year Fixed Rate Bond using the SmartSave brand. In May 2020, they launched 2 and 3 Year Fixed Rate Bonds and have subsequently expanded their range of savings products to include easy access savings and several notice products.
