Interest Rates




Your Acenden Mortgages terms and conditions or loan agreement will stipulate how the lender
calculates the interest rate charged on your mortgage. The calculation method used will depend
on the type of mortgage product you have with your lender. The following are typical types of
mortgage product:


Product Types
       Variable – If the interest rate is variable, it may increase or decrease in accordance with
       the terms and conditions of your mortgage or loan agreement. The interest rates for
       variable mortgages are typically based on a variable base rate plus a set product margin.
       See below for a fuller explanation of these features.
       Fixed – If the interest rate is fixed, it will not increase or decrease even when the variable
       base rate associated with a product such as BBR or LIBOR changes. At the end of the
       fixed period, the interest rate will usually revert to the relevant variable base rate plus a
       set product margin.
       Discounted – If your interest rate is discounted, your monthly payments can go up or
       down with the relevant variable base rate, but you receive a discount on this interest rate
       for a set period of time. At the end of the discounted period the interest rate will usually
       revert to the relevant variable base rate plus a set product margin and the discount no
       longer applies.

Variable Base Rates
Unless your Acenden is currently in a period where a fixed interest rate applies (see Product
Types above), the calculation of your interest rate typically involves the use of a variable base
rate. Your interest rate will be recalculated at regular periods throughout the life of your
mortgage or loan. The following are examples of variable base rates that lenders use:

       Bank of England Base Rate (BBR) – This is the rate the Bank of England sets every
       month and publicly announces.
London Inter Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) – This is the rate at which banks borrow
funds from each other in London. As there is more than one LIBOR, it is important to
check your mortgage terms and conditions or loan agreement to be sure which LIBOR
your mortgage or loan is set against.
Standard Variable Rate (SVR) – This rate is set by your lender and moves up or down
at the lender’s discretion. The lender’s decision may include consideration of changes in
the BBR or LIBOR.
