1. Gross interest is the interest you receive before tax is deducted.
2. AER (Annual Equivalent Rate) is a figure that helps you compare interest rates across different accounts. It illustrates what your interest return would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year. Every advert for a savings product will contain an AER.
