HiSAVE is ICICI Bank UK PLC's award winning range of online savings accounts and the new HiSAVE Remittance Account now joins this portfolio. This easy-access account offers the dual-benefit of far more convenient money transfers to India along with the opportunity to earn interest on the balance maintained.

HiSAVE Remittance Account holders will earn 1.50% interest on any balance maintained in the account. They will also have the option to set a "Rate Block" on transfers to India, which means that customers can set a minimum exchange rate at which to transfer and ICICI Bank will ensure that money is sent only at that exchange rate or higher.

Other features of the new HiSAVE Remittance Account include:
• Online-only account opening and management
• Monthly interest on account balance
• Instant money transfers to any ICICI bank account in India, as well as transfers to any other bank within just 24 hours

• o In 24 hours - to 55,000 other bank branches in India

If ICICI Bank does not meet this assurance, it will pay 5 pence for every £10 transferred by way of credit to the account, from a minimum of £1 to a maximum of £50
