The move comes after Barclays and HSBC lowered interest rates this week. HSBC will announce another tax reduction tomorrow.
“We are further cutting selected products from the fixed mortgage series to ensure that those who want to buy the first home, move to the next or want to switch to a new deal are still thinking nationwide,” said Carlo Pileggi’s senior mortgage manager.
John Charcol technical manager Nicholas Mendes added: “Will we see Barclays and Halifax repeat as quickly as HSBC after the latest round of cuts nationwide?
“The profit margin is going to be lowered, and I suspect there are several other lenders waiting on the wings and then they come out from behind to make a big cut. Cooperative? Maybe?”
