Interest rates on October 2, 2024, in Poland and their impact on mortgage loans
On October 2, 2024, the Monetary Policy Council (RPP) decided to maintain the NBP interest rates at unchanged levels: 5.75% (reference), 6.25% (lombard), 5.25% (deposit), 5.80% (rediscount), and 5.85% (bill discount). This decision was in line with analysts' expectations, who do not anticipate changes until mid-2025.
Experts predict an increase in inflation to 6% at the beginning of next year, mainly due to rising energy prices. Despite the lack of interest rate cuts, mortgage loan rates are falling, which may be due to expectations of future rate cuts. The average fixed rate for mortgage loans has decreased by 0.57 percentage points, which has lowered the monthly payment of an average loan by 151 PLN.
The current interest rates for mortgage loans in Poland range from 7% to 8%, which is significantly higher compared to previous years. High interest rates affect the creditworthiness of Poles, which may limit the demand for mortgage loans.
