DNB adjusts interest rates on home mortgages

DNB has today decided to increase interest rates on home mortgages by up to 0.25 percentage points.  

“It has long been expected that Norges Bank would increase the key policy rate at their meeting on 21 March. The interest rates have been historically low over a long period of time, and the fact that they are now rising signals a positive development in the Norwegian economy," says Ingjerd Blekeli Spiten, head of Personal Banking in DNB.  

"We will continue to offer highly competitive prices, while delivering a complete range of banking services, including sound advice, simple digital solutions and people you can talk to all over the country," she concludes.  

For existing customers, the interest rate adjustments will become effective as of 8 May. All customers whose interest rates will be adjusted, will be given information in the Internet bank or receive a letter by regular mail, explaining how their mortgage will be affected.
