ECB Rate Change

On 12 December 2024, the European Central Bank reduced its ECB Refinancing Rate by 0.25%. As a result we will make these changes to our rates:

Mortgages:

Tracker mortgage rates will reduce by 0.25% for all (Tracker) mortgages linked to the ECB rate.
The change will happen during December 2024 & January 2025 and we will write to our customers with Tracker mortgages confirming the new interest rate and the date it’s changing.

How does a tracker mortgage work?

A tracker mortgage ‘tracks’ changes to the ECB rate. If the ECB decides to increase or decrease its rate, the rate on the Tracker mortgage will go up or down by the same percentage.

My tracker mortgage repayment is changing. Why is this happening?

The ECB has reduced its rate by 0.25%. This means the tracker mortgage rate is going down by 0.25%.

How will I be informed of the changes to my Tracker Mortgage interest rate?

We will write to all customers to inform of the changes to their tracker mortgage interest rate from December 2024.

I pay by direct debit. What do I need to do?

The direct debit for your mortgage will automatically change, so you don’t have to do anything.

I pay my mortgage by standing order. What do I need to do?

You will need to amend your standing order to reflect the increased mortgage repayment.

If you are registered for our AIB mobile banking app, you can amend the standing order through our “Pay & Transfer” option. Alternatively, you visit the Quick Banking Area in your local branch.

If your current account is not with AIB, you will need to contact your Bank to make an amendment to your standing order.

I have a variable or a fixed rate mortgage - are these rates changing?

Details of our mortgage rates are available on our website.
