ANZ increases its floating rates

ANZ has increased its floating rates. It says it has been competitive in floating rates, lowering them 2.95% since the OCR began to fall in August 2024. This, it says, is more than any of the other main banks.

"Ahead of the November OCR cut, our floating rate was already below most of the main banks, our new rate remains competitively positioned among the main banks in the market today. We’ll continue to review rates as global and local conditions evolve," it says in a statement.

Asteron home loans a month away

Asteron, formerly Royal & SunAlliance Financial Services and a subsidiary of listed insurance company Promina, will be launching its new home loan products with a roadshow beginning Monday, March 29.

Asteron will be putting its own label on the products but they will be provided by an as yet unnamed partner and with the loans available from the following week.

Brian Lenehan, products and marketing manager at Asteron, says the partner’s name will be announced at the launch. "We’re pretty pleased with the arrangements we’ve got," he says.

Marketing of the loans, which will include fixed and floating rate loans and mixes of both, will use the slogan: "Making home loans affordable."

"We won’t have an establishment fee and will competitive interest rates, without being inappropriate. It’s going to be a good quality mortgage offering," Lenehan says.

Asteron will be aiming at the core residential mortgages market, rather than trying to fill niches, he says.

The company will rely on its existing life insurance brokers as well as specialist mortgage brokers to sell its home loans.

Its strategy is to try to expand its sales of its risk products on the back of the lending business.

Depending on the success of the home loans, the company may expand into other parts of the lending market later on.
