NS&I has put its Green Savings Bonds back on sale with issue 8 offering a three year fixed-rate of 3.82% gross/AER, an increase on the previous rate offered.
Money raised by the Green Savings Bonds will be invested in green finance projects as part of the Government’s Green Financing Framework.
Green Savings Bonds were first launched in 2021 to help fund green government projects across the UK.
Green Savings Bonds are separate to NS&I’s Net Financing target set by the Treasury.
The previous issue of Green Savings Bonds was removed from general sale on 26 November. The rate on the previous issue was 2.95% gross/AER.
The minimum investment in Green Savings Bonds is £100, with a maximum limit of £100,000 per person for each issue. Investors need to be aged 16 or over to purchase the bonds. The full amount deposited will be held for three years and cannot be withdrawn during this time, NS&I says.
Green Savings Bonds are used alongside gilts to raise funds for green projects as part of the UK Government Green Financing Framework, which was updated in November 2025 to include nuclear energy projects.
