Bank of America plans to introduce tiered accounts for which customers will have to pay a maintenance fee. This means the reintroduction of premium bank accounts that will carry a charge of up to $25 a month.

According to OECD data, the average household savings rate between 1992 and 2001 was 8.46%. This fell to 3.46% between 2002 and 2008, symptomatic of the high levels of consumer spending that characterized much of the decade. Although the global economic slowdown exacerbated the low level of household savings in 2008, for many consumers the crisis has highlighted the importance of saving.

In the past, ethical investment involved avoiding 'sin' stocks such as alcohol, gambling or armaments. This has evolved into fund managers who actively seek out opportunities in clean tech, energy security and water, among other socially responsible investments. These not only bring moral assurance but, according to new research, are earning very attractive returns.
