Loan rates rise despite base cuts


Average interest rates on unsecured loans of £5,000 and £7,500 have risen by as much as one per cent over the last six months, new research from MoneyExpert.com has found.

The rate increases have come despite the Bank of England trying to give lenders confidence in the market by cutting rates three times over the same period.

Sean Gardner, founder of the website, said: "The unsecured loans market is almost mirroring the mortgage market where the issue is not so much rates but availability - whether or not lenders will let you have the cash."

He commented that people with good credit records can still find competitive deals, but he advised them to do their research before applying for a loan.

According to the research, the company with the highest interest rates for a loan of £5,000 was Citi Financial Loan, with 29.9 per cent.

In related news, Mervyn King, governor of the Bank of England, recently commented that as consumer inflation continues to rise, "the nice decade is behind us".
