Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

A UNIT trust launched by M&G is targeted to attract savers away from the building society market.

The M&G Treasury Fund is aimed at the cautious investor. It proposes to invest its assets in short-dated Treasury Bills and other relatively risk-free investments.

Annual charges will be 0.6 per cent and there will be no initial fees.

Income will be distributed monthly. The minimum investment is pounds 5,000.

M&G believes that returns will be consistently above the rates offered on building society instant access accounts.

It calculates that if the fund had been in place last November its compounded annual return would have been 6.06 per cent, compared with an average of 5.5 per cent from the top building societies.
