The gross interest rate is quoted as 1.15%.

The bank rate is 0.1%.

Why is there such a big difference please? Is the 1.15% sustainable?

I heard that Premium Bonds were maintaining their "interest" rate.

Are you aware of the Bank Accounts Savings etc board?

If sustainable means will the variable rate remain as is for the long term, I doubt it in view of the previously announced reduction which was cancelled during the coronavirus pandemic.

See a specific thread over there (which I've updated today for completeness):
