National drops fixed rate home loans - 9 January 2001

The National Australia Bank has announced a reduction in fixed interest rate home loans, effective from Monday 15 January 2001.

The new rates are as follows:

1 year 6.99% (previously 7.1%)
2 year 6.99% (previously 7.35%)
3 year 6.89% (previously 7.15%)
4 year 7.29% (previously 7.6%)
5 year 7.19% (previously 7.6%)
10 year 7.89% (previously 8.09)

Mr Ken Hodgson, the National's General Manager, Retail Financial Services, said the decision to lower fixed rate home loans followed a recent downward move in wholesale market rates.

"Our three year fixed rate loan represents outstanding value for home buyers and it's a term for which we have seen consistent demand," Mr Hodgson said.
