With the RBA cash rate meeting on the horizon, banks have once again raised term deposit rates.
The RBA is tipped to raise the cash rate for the second consecutive month at next week's meeting.
The consensus seems to be a 25 basis point hike, however after stronger-than-expected GDP growth, Westpac chief economist Bill Evans has pencilled in a 40 basis point hike.
Term deposit rates have climbed strongly in recent months, and with more cash rate hikes potentially on the horizon, this trend could continue.
