March 2023 Interest Rate Changes

Following the Reserve Bank of Australia’s decision to increase the official cash rate by 0.25% per annum (p.a.), Firefighters Mutual Bank will change interest rates on some of our loan products.

Why are we changing interest rates?

As market conditions change, as a Mutual Bank we need to adjust our rates to operate sustainably while providing value for all Members.

To further support our Members, from 21 March 2023 Firefighters Mutual Bank will reduce the 4 and 5 year fixed interest rate terms for new home and residential investment loans by 0.20% p.a. and 0.70% p.a. on all Your Way and Your Way Plus Fixed Home Loans.

From 21 March 2023, we’re introducing two new Home Loan interest rate options on our Your Way Home Loan Basic Variable.
