Yorkshire BS rollover 1 year fixes have already slumped to 5.80%

from september 2008 onwards their will be a mega amount of 1 year fixes maturing , will be interesting to see what deals ( if any) providers offer in attempts to retain these funds, especially Nationwide who will have retained a lot of former portman account funds due to the rates it offered on its 1 year fixes.0 -

I'd guess they were waiting until the BOE rate decision yesterday to see if they should cut it further and also as 'cover' for the decision itself (if BOE had cut rates).....under construction.... COVID is a [discontinued] scam0

my guess is that it has only been higher 1 year fixed rates elsewhere that deterred nationwide from reducing the rate earlier.
Nationwide will now be watching to see if the current best buy 1 year fixed rate levels now fall.

The institutions on the current best buys aren't really on the radar. The typical highstreet set is much more important, although an eye is always kept on the tables.
Obviously the additional need for retail deposits of late has kept things up at levels you really don't want from a profitability point of view. Brought in a lot of cash though!0 -
Just clicked the link on the Nationwide Media Centre and the latest news item indicates that they are reducing the rates of their bond products with effect from tomorrow.
Presumably anyone wanting to take advantage of the rates as they stand will have to apply today.0 -
