Fresh move in the UK banking space: a new bank with SPF backing is making its play in the market. The strategy? Attracting everyday British savers with rates that undercut the usual suspects. Could be worth watching if you're interested in how traditional finance is reshaping competitive landscapes. Market consolidation or genuine disruption? Time will tell.

NGL, is this another "revolutionary" bank? These people in the UK really can't sit still, just waiting to see how long they can keep it up...

Uh, isn't this the same old trick? Raise interest rates a bit to grab the market, and wait until the hype passes.

ngl, this is just the same old trick... Even with SPF endorsement, it can't change the essence of traditional finance. Do they really think high interest rates can shake up the market? Let's wait and see what happens next; it feels like they'll end up being absorbed in the end.

Another new bank is coming to stir things up. Things are moving pretty quickly here in the UK. But the old trick of attracting deposits with high interest rates is still the same...

ngl, this tactic is similar to the last wave of internet finance. How long can they sustain the rate war by throwing money? The real disruption should be somewhere else, right?
