AIB rates - Credit crisis forces move

AIB has announced increases on its mortgage and overdraft rates.

The increases have been prompted by the higher interest rates in the wholesale money markets in recent months as a result of the international credit crisis.

The bank's standard variable rate for owner occupiers will rise by 0.15 points to 5.25% and for buy-to-let customers by 0.15 points to 5.45%.

AIB added that its overdraft rates for personal and business customers will increase by 0.25 points. The bank's personal 'A' overdraft rate is increasing to 12.95%. The business 'AA' overdraft rate is increasing to 10.70%.

The increases will take effect from close of business on January 15.
