Interest Rate Crisis Update June 2023
With the unprecedented rise in interest rates, many are seeing the Bank Of England's attempts to curb inflation as a new financial crisis. In this episode, Simon tells you everything you need to know, and what to expect. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Bank Of England have voted by 7-2 to increase the base rate by half a percent, from 4.5% to 5%, the thirteenth consecutive increase since September 2021. Wage increases are not following suit, meaning that many will be worse off over the course of the next year. There are 4.2 million households that have been affected by interest rate rises over the past year. Many of these have seen their mortgages triple or even quadruple as a result. Those who suddenly find their homes too expensive to own will be selling their properties, meaning an increase in supply, and prices of houses falling. BEST MOMENTS 'Because of the inflation we're facing, the Bank Of England uses interest rates as a macroeconomic tool' 'It might be very difficult for homeowners to refinance' 'It's very hard to get properties to stack up due to higher interest rates.
