Английская Википедия:Index-linked Savings Certificates
Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Index-linked Savings Certificates are inflation linked bonds from National Savings and Investments, the state-owned savings bank in the United Kingdom. The bond terms are typically 2,3 or 5 years. The returns are linked to CPI with a tiny interest rate on top. Bonds can no longer be cashed in at any time, but only on maturity.
Index-linked Savings Certificates are free from UK income tax making them relatively attractive to tax-payers, particularly higher rate tax-payers. They are backed by the Treasury of the UK Government so are considered to be safe deposits.
The bonds come in issues. Each issue has a per person investment limit, currently 15000 pounds.
The certificates used to be known as "Granny Bonds" because they were originally only available to savers who were over the retirement age.

On 19 July 2010, due to high investment levels the certificates were withdrawn from general sale in order to keep investments within the financing target set by HM Treasury.[1] After re-introduction this happened again on 7 September 2011.[2]
