General FAQs

The BoE base rate is the rate of interest that the Bank of England charges banks and building societies to borrow money. This affects the interest rates set by those banks and building societies for their customers. Any change to the base rate, may impact the interest rates on savings and mortgages.

The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) changes the base rate. It's part of the action they take to keep inflation low and stable.
The previous base rate change was 1 August 2024 when it decreased from 5.25% to 5.00%.
We'd review the impact of any further base rate changes along with the market and other economic factors at the time. It may impact our mortgage interest rates.

The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee regularly reviews the base rate (normally monthly) to determine whether a change is needed.
