Wait before pouncing on Isa deals

How do you find the best rate for your Isa? And is the fall in bank complaints simply the calm before the storm? Adam Jourdan rounds up the week's personal finance news.

If you're looking for the best rate for your cash individual savings account (Isa), then you're probably better holding off until the weekend. Over the next month, up until 6 April, banks will compete for top spot in the weekend Isa tables that feature in the Sunday newspaper supplements.

As a result, many of the best deals don't come out until late in the week, in abid to pip competitors to the post, says Defaqto banking analyst David Black on Thisismoney.co.uk.
