Bank of England base rate

What is it?

The Bank of England (BoE) base rate is the official interest rate set by the BoE Monetary Policy Committee (MPC). Banks and Building Societies use this base rate to calculate interest rates for some of their mortgages and savings offerings.

How could it affect you?

If the BoE base rate changes, your monthly mortgage payments may be affected if you're on a tracker or variable rate mortgage, so you might benefit from anticipating what a rate change could mean for you.

How can Nationwide help you?

If you're a Nationwide mortgage customer and the base rate changes, we'll write to you to confirm your new rate and payment details if your current mortgage is affected. If you'd like to find out more, please visit our dedicated Bank of England base rate page, or use the calculator below to work out how a base rate change may affect your monthly mortgage payments.

Interest only mortgages

If you repay all or part of your mortgage on an interest only basis, your monthly payments only pay the interest due and don’t go towards reducing the amount you borrowed. So it’s important you have plans in place and regularly check they’re on track to repay the full interest only amount by the end date of the mortgage.

Switch your deal

To secure your future monthly mortgage payments, look into switching your mortgage deal.
