NATIONAL SAVINGS AND INVESTMENTS LAUNCHES WELSH LANGUAGE WEBSITE

10 December 2002

National Savings & Investments (NS&I) the government-backed savings provider, has launched a Welsh language version of its enhanced website at www.nsandi.com. The website can be accessed by clicking on 'Cymraeg' on the homepage.

NS&I offers customers 100% security as all money invested is backed by HM Treasury. Products range from Premium Bonds to tax free Savings Certificates and can be bought at any Welsh Post Office.

The website features a brand new retail channel so customers can apply online to buy six NS&I products: Cash mini ISA, Fixed Interest Savings Certificates, Fixed Rate Savings Bonds, Income Bonds, Index-linked Savings Certificates and Pensioners Guaranteed Income Bonds. More products will be available online in the near future.

There is also the Premium Bond Checker which enables people in Wales to find out if their Premium Bonds have won any prizes in the last six months or if any prizes remain unclaimed - regardless of the age of the Premium Bond - and lay claim to some of the unclaimed money.

Visitors to the site can use the NS&I Product Chooser, helping customers find the best NS&I financial product for them and an Investment Calculator to find out what return they would get on a guaranteed rate or income-generating investment with NS&I.
