ASB has dropped its two-year fixed home loan rate by 0.2% to a market-leading 4.15%.

Craig Sims, executive general manager retail banking, said the change gives home buyers options in a rising rate environment.

“It’s been a challenging year for many. Heading into the summer season, ASB’s pleased to be offering customers choice and savings, whether that’s having more certainty over their home loan payments or having a little more flex in their household budget at a busy time of year.”
