Following the Reserve Bank’s decision to increase the cash rate by 0.50%, People’s Choice will be increasing interest rates on its term investments and home loans.

The standard variable rate for both existing and new residential loans will lift 0.50% p.a. to 5.26% p.a., effective from 21 June 2022. 

In good news for savers, People’s Choice is lifting interest paid on term investments with increases of up to 1.35% p.a.

Today’s decision will see rates increase on all term investments from one month to five years (excluding eight months), effective from 17 June 2022.

Our one-year rate will lift by 1.35%p.a. to 2.35%p.a., with the two and three-year rates both increasing by 1.30% p.a. to 2.50% p.a. and 2.70% p.a. respectively.

“I’m pleased we have been able to pass on increases for our term deposits,” said Maria-Ann Camilleri, Chief Member Officer. “We’ve increased the rate of return for many investment terms, making them much more attractive.”
