Has Your Lender Dropped Rates? Lender Changes August 2025

This time last week, we saw the RBA cut the cash rate by .25 percentage points to 3.6%, continuing what we hope is a year defined by cash rate drops come December. A week on and most, but not all lenders have taken action and carried the interest rate cut over to their clients. If you’re on a variable rate, you should be seeing interest rate drops from the following lenders. Please note this only includes lenders listed on the MoneyQuest panel.
