Ubank ups savings rate to 4.60% following latest rate hike
The RBA isn’t letting up on its interest rate hikes, but this phase of rate raising can also see savers benefit.
Ubank is the latest to increase its savings rate, moving the maximum 4.35% on its Save Account to 4.60% p.a, which equals out to a base rate of 0.10% with the bonus rate sitting at 4.50%. These changes are slated to take effect on April 1.
Keep in mind that to get the full bonus rate from a Ubank savings account you’ll need to make a deposit of $200 a month in any spend or save account.
Alongside Ubank, more banks are likely to follow suit and continue to bring up their savings and term deposit interest rates.
On top of this, interest rate hikes are expected to continue, so savers may find it prudent to continue to look out for and compare between savings account providers to get the best rate possible. Some of the other top rates on offer at the time of writing are MyState Bank’s Bonus Saver Account at 4.35%, Macquarie’s Savings Account at 4.50% and BOQ’s 5.15% for younger savers (ages 14-35).
Keep in mind that each savings account comes with its own set of requirements before a saver receives the top rate. Be sure to check the details of each.
