*Grossed-up = the gross yield a fully-taxable savings account or bond would need to match this gilt's net yield, at that tax rate. Gilt coupons are taxed as income; the capital gain to par is exempt from CGT. Figures don't include your Personal Savings Allowance, so they're conservative. How we calculate this.
TR54 is the UK Treasury gilt "1 5/8% Treasury Gilt 2054", paying a 1.625% annual coupon and redeeming at par (£100) on 22 October 2054 — about 28.4 years away. At its 8 Jun 2026 closing price of £43.85 the gross redemption yield is 5.585%. Because the coupon is low and the price is well below par, most of the return comes as the tax-free pull to par (a £5,615 capital gain per £10,000 nominal, exempt from CGT) rather than as taxable coupon income. That makes it unusually efficient for higher- and additional-rate taxpayers: an additional-rate (45%) payer keeps a net yield of 4.35% — to match that after tax, a fully-taxable savings account or bond would need to pay about 7.91% gross.
