Interest rate update: August 2022

Following the Reserve Bank of Australia’s cash rate decision, Suncorp Bank today announced new interest rates for home loan and savings customers.

From August 12, Suncorp Bank will increase home loan variable rates by 0.50% per annum (p.a.).  

For a customer, this increase means that for every $100,000 of loan balance remaining on a 25-year variable loan, they can expect their monthly repayments to increase by around $26.

Suncorp Bank CEO, Clive van Horen said: “We understand it’s a fast-changing rate environment with added cost of living pressures. These changes will impact customers, and we encourage anyone who is concerned about their higher repayments to contact us immediately and we can tailor a solution to suit their needs.”

Owner occupied, principal and interest 3-year fixed rate will reduce to 5.79% p.a.

To support savers, the interest rate on Suncorp Bank’s Growth Saver account will increase to 2.40% p.a. This is an increase of 1.95% since May. Savers can now also earn 3.20% p.a. on Suncorp Bank’s 18-month Term Deposit.
