Gross means the contractual rate of interest payable not taking account of the deduction of income tax at the appropriate rate.
Net rates are illustrative only and allow for deduction from gross rate of income tax at the specified rate i.e. assuming rate of income tax at 20%.
AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year.
Tax Free is the contractual rate of interest payable where interest is exempt from income tax.
