Gross means the rate without any tax deducted. Interest/profits are paid gross. You are responsible for paying any tax due on interest/profits that exceed your Personal Savings Allowance to HM Revenue & Customs.

AER (Annual Equivalent Rate) shows what the interest rate would be if returns were paid and compounded once each year. It helps you compare the rates on different savings products.
