“With rates starting at 7.95 per cent we’re confident this will drive competition in the bank-dominated space and that means more choice and better outcomes for our business partners and our customers.”
However, Liberty is not content to stop here. The finance group’s chief operating officer James Boyle told The Adviser that the mortgage market could expect to hear similar announcements regarding Liberty’s range of products in the immediate future.
“While our commercial product now represents one of the broadest solution sets available from mainstream lenders, we ideally want to drive competition across the board. We want to give our customers more options, which will result in more business for brokers,” Mr Boyle said.
