*Savings Rate Equivalent = 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 — at the rate in force when each is paid, which rises by 2 percentage points (to 22/42/47%) from 6 April 2027; 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.
TR68 is the UK Treasury gilt "3 1/2% Treasury Gilt 2068", paying a 3.5% annual coupon and redeeming at par (£100) on 22 July 2068 — about 41.7 years away. At its 9 Nov 2026 closing price of £68.73 the gross redemption yield is 5.391%. Trading below par, part of its return is a CGT-exempt capital gain to maturity (£3,127 per £10,000 nominal), so its net yield holds up better after tax than its coupon alone would suggest — a 45% taxpayer keeps 3.22% net. That is how gilts are taxed in practice: gilt coupons are taxed as income, while the capital gain is free of capital gains tax on any disposal — at redemption or an earlier sale — though interest accrued since the last coupon is taxed as income when you sell.
