Suncorp Bank adjusts variable rates

Suncorp Bank CEO, Clive van Horen said: “The decision to raise our home and business loan interest rates has not been made lightly, particularly given the rising cost of living which is impacting Australians.

“We understand this increase will put pressure on people’s pockets and we are here to assist customers with tailored solutions to help them navigate this rate change.”

As part of today’s announcement, Suncorp will also raise interest rates on its term deposit and Growth Saver accounts to improve customer returns.

“Suncorp continues to prioritise offering competitive interest rates, as well as deposit accounts which empower our customers to maximise their savings potential,” Mr van Horen said.

This includes the Everyday Account which has no monthly fees or currency conversion charges, and the option to have up to nine sub-accounts to help customers reach their spending and savings goals.

Suncorp customers can also activate offset mode which utilises the savings in their Everyday Options Account and sub-accounts, to offset their mortgage.
