AMP hikes mortgage interest rates

From AMP:

We are managing our portfolio in a very active market and our decisions on rates are never taken lightly.

We have held off passing this cost on to customers for as long as we can and in fact have not increased interest rates for existing customers since June last year.

With any change, we are focussed on balancing the interests of our customers, the regulator and our business.
