Performance

We've been around for over 130 years, and we’re proud of our performance both past and present. Keep reading for more information on our current bonuses, past performance and our highlights for the previous year.

2023 highlights

  • Total assets including the Child Trust Fund (CTF) are £215 million
  • Assets excluding the CTF are £162 million
  • Traditional membership was at 12,645 (2022: 12,738)
  • Total number of traditional policies increased to 19,002 (2022: 18,978)
  • Including the Child Trust Fund the Society now has 80,727 policies and accounts

Sheffield Mutual continued to differentiate itself from large banks and building societies by providing a personalised service, as highlighted by receiving a 95% satisfaction score. 

Commenting on the results, Jamie Bellamy, Chief Executive, said:

"Personal savings has rightly been pushed to the forefront, leading to a more active market. The savvier savers are also not just chasing the highest rate, they’re researching the financial organisation to check that their mutual values align. Our member feedback and reviews continue to encourage our team and demonstrate that competitive rates and high quality service can be found away from the large corporates."

Our bonus rates

Unlike banks who add interest to their plans, we aim to add bonuses to our members' policies. An overview of our recent bonus rates can be found in the table below.

Please note, our interim rate is used for maturities and claims prior to the next declaration and is not a reliable indicator of future bonus rates. Interim bonus rates are not guaranteed and may go up or down until they are declared. The declared rate is agreed at the end of March each year. 

In certain circumstances your capital is at risk, please read the product brochure and Key Information Document for further information.
