Heritage bank will cut its standard variable home loan rate by 0.25%, reducing its variable interest rate to 5.89%.
The rate change will be effective from May 16.
“As a customer-owned bank, we always strive to provide the most competitive interest rates we can,” says chief executive officer John Minz.
“We’re proud that our rates are among the best in the marketplace.
“Following this reduction, our standard variable home loan rate of 5.89% will be 0.28% lower than the average of the Big Four banks, which will have rates above 6%,” says Minz.
Minz says Heritage Bank’s home loan interest rate reflects the bank's intention to give customers the best value possible and not to make profits for shareholders.
