Suncorp Bank has announced variable rate discounts on owner-occupied and investment lending.
In a note to brokers obtained by
Australian Broker, the non-major announced that it will be trimming the standard variable rate on its Home Package Plus product for principal-and-interest owner occupied loans by more than 100 basis points.
Available for new lending from 1 September 2015 to 13 October 2015, Home Package Plus loans with an LVR of 80% or less and a loan amount between $150,000 to $500,000 will receive a standard variable rate discount of 1.30%, to 4.24%.

Whilst Suncorp recently announced a 27 basis point standard variable rate increase on investment lending to meet regulatory requirements, the non-major has announced various discounts based on loan amounts and LVRs.
For investment loans between $150,000 to $499,999 with an LVR of 80% or less, the standard variable rate will be discounted by 95 basis points, to 4.86%. For loans between $500,000 to $749,999 with the same LVR, the variable rate will be dropped 110 basis points, to 4.71%.
