  • About our offshore USD savings products

    Skipton offers some of the best offshore interest rates and is committed to providing excellent customer service. With a wide range of Offshore Savings products in both Sterling and US Dollars, you can trust Skipton to diversify your savings and spread risk.

    Based in Guernsey, one of the world's most reputable and well established financial centres, Skipton International is supervised by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission and is a participant in the Guernsey Banking Deposit Compensation Scheme.

  • Why choose Skipton?

    Being a small bank without an extensive branch network to maintain allows Skipton to keep its costs down and pass the benefits to customers. Skipton serves the Channel Islands, UK expats and citizens of other countries around the world. It meets the offshore bank account needs of British expats and other nationalities resident in over 100 countries.

    Skipton’s online management allows you to have 24/7 access to your account. With each account having its own unique US Dollar account number, it is easier to manage your accounts.

    BACS payments are only available for GBP transactions within the UK and therefore do not apply for USD payments. All USD transitions are processed by CHAPS:

    • USD to USD Payment with a Skipton charge of USD$35.00
    • USD to FX Payment with a Skipton charge of USD$85.00

    Please see other service fees on the Savings Tariff of Charges.

    In addition to providing some of the best interest rates, Skipton delivers an award-winning personable service like no other. Our customer reviews from trusted *Feefo can speak for our excellent service.

    *Feefo is an independent customer feedback review organisation.
