Westpac home loan rate changes - June

The first of the big-four to jump post-RBA decision was Westpac, passing on the full 50 basis point increase to new and existing customers.

Westpac Consumer and Business Banking Chief Executive Chris de Bruin said Westpac customers have managed their finances carefully during the pandemic, with many putting more funds aside in their savings and offset accounts.
