For Bendigo and Adelaide Bank home loan customers on a variable rate loan the interest rate will increase by 0.25 per cent as of Monday, May 16.
The bank will also increase the interest rate on many of its deposit products including an increase to the rate on its Reward Saver account by 0.25 per cent.
Chief customer officer for consumer banking Richard Fennell said the bank has been careful to try to balance the interests of borrowers and depositors in making these changes.
"We understand that this increase from historically low levels may be the first many borrowers have seen but we know our customers are generally well positioned to manage changing market conditions," Mr Fennell said.
