State savings new issue

I was on the phone to them setting up my online banking with them I asked about any new issue.
Guy told me they always here talk well before it happens but not a word yet so I guess nothing this month anyways
 
10-year Irish government bonds are now yielding around 2.2%, which makes State Savings products look pretty unattractive at the moment.
 
Are you sure about that, this is a quotation from NTMA: Fixed Term Products, Instalment Savings and Prize Bonds winnings are not subject to Deposit Interest Retention Tax (DIRT) and are exempt from Income Tax, Pay Related Social Insurance and Capital Gains Tax in Ireland.
 
Give us a link to all of those banks and rates please?

And also the characteristics of such accounts... E.g. demand, notice, fixed term, lump sum, regular saver, min/max balance, etc. I can't imagine that there are too many banks offering 2% gross on deposits/savings (and I'm discounting UK/£ accounts for obvious reasons).
 
You can find 2% on Raisin.ie. 2yr Fixed term. 3% for 5 years. Both are with a French bank
There's a referral bonus of €50 if you're interested.
 
What's the tax treatment in that case?
Some banks deduct Witholding Tax at their domestic rate, if you supply Tax Residency Certificate, they refund it. Others don't. You make a declaration to revenue in your tax return

Is it taxed as income or dirt?
 
Not so much as a whisper. My advice is, believe nothing unless you hear it from me first and you might be waiting a while
Surely if the ECB hike rates again tomorrow deposit rates will have to start moving up?
