Credited Interest Rates (CIRs) are the positive or negative earning rates applied to your accounts after investment management costs have been deducted. CIRs are determined monthly.
Please be aware that the actual returns applied to your account are based upon the CIRs and will depend on the investment option you are invested in, the period of time that you were invested in the option and the timing of cash flows into and out of your account(s). For application purposes, the monthly CIRs are first annualised and then an adjustment is made to take into account the actual number of days in each month.
