More lenders move on rates

Four more lenders have announced reductions to the standard variable rate (SVR) on their home loan products, but not all have passed on the rate cut in full.

Following the Reserve Bank’s decision to cut the official cash rate by 25 basis points to a record low 1.75 per cent, QPCU will pass on the full 25 basis points cut to its SVR loans for owner-occupiers and investors, effective 23 May.

QPCU will also reduce its Classic Home Loan discount offer for new business by 10 basis points to 3.97 per cent, with a comparison rate of 4.03 per cent.

Credit Union Australia (CUA) will pass on the full 25 basis points cut to its SVR loans for owner-occupiers, with the new rate to start at 4.81 per cent, effective 19 May. CUA’s standard variable rate for investors will be reduced by 20 basis points to 5.22 per cent.
