   Good question but not a straightforward answer.
   One needs to compare like with like which can be difficult. You should consider the amount to be invested, the term of the investment, whether you might need access to the funds and most importantly the Trems and Conditions applying to each offer.

   An Post Saving Certificates gives you peace of mind as you know you will receive a net 21% return over 5.5 years.

   At present you can find more attractive rates in the market which may be a better bet if you are investing for a shorter period. However these rates are liable to change with a short notice period so read the small print.
