The ME home loans to get the biggest haircut were interest only (IO) investor home loans, including:

  • Inv Flexible Fixed 4 Years IO: 50 basis point cut to 3.34% p.a. (4.50% p.a. comparison rate*)
  • Inv Flexible Fixed 5 Years IO: 50 basis point cut to 3.34% p.a. (4.38% p.a. comparison rate*)
  • Member Package Inv Flexible Fixed 4 Years IO: 50 basis point cut to 3.19% p.a. (3.69% p.a. comparison rate*)
  • Member Package Inv Flexible Fixed 5 Years IO: 50 basis point cut to 3.19% p.a. (3.68% p.a. comparison rate*)

These rates apply to borrowers with a maximum loan-to-value ratio (LVR) of 80%, meaning borrowers either need at least a 20% deposit, or the equivalent of 20% equity in the home.

All of ME Bank's cuts in the past week were to investor loans, with other cuts by between 29 and 40 basis points.
