BCU Bank has announced interest rate changes following the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) decision to increase the official cash rate by 0.25% p.a. to 3.85% on 3 February 2026.
As a customer-owned bank our customers are our priority, so we strive to achieve the right balance between the needs of borrowers and depositors when reviewing interest rates.
Home loans and personal loans
BCU Bank will increase all our variable home loan and variable personal loan interest rates by 0.25% p.a., effective 18 February 2026. Customers will receive communications with details relating to their specific loans in the coming weeks.
Deposits customers
BCU Bank will increase the interest rates between 0.10%-0.25% p.a. on selected variable deposit products effective 1 March 2026. Key rate increases include:
- Bonus Saver and Power Saver bonus interest rate will increase by 0.25% p.a.
- Boss Saver bonus interest rate will increase by 0.10% p.a.
- Scoot Super Saver and Business iSaver interest rate will increase by 0.25% p.a.
Our aim is to keep our rates as competitive as possible to benefit all customers, and offer support when it comes to their finances.
Market comparisons show that our rates continue to be competitive. We encourage customers to always compare like for like products and pricing across the market, rather than focusing solely on timing and degree of any rate changes. Many organisations, like us, adjust their rates outside standard cycle periods.
We recommend that customers review their existing banking arrangements to ensure that their banking products continue to meet their needs.
If you require assistance with your home loan repayments, please contact us to learn about the options available to you.
