4 October – 8 October 2021

Summary: Very few rate changes; Citibank, BankWest only ADIs to change rates; Judo still offers highest rate in survey.

There were very few changes by banks, building societies and other approved deposit-taking institutions (ADIs) in this week’s YieldReport survey. All six took the form of rate decreases and none of the major banks changed their rates.

Only two ADIs made any rate changes. Citibank lowered rates on its terms of 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 1 year by 10bps each. BankWest trimmed its 1-year rate by 5bps and lowered its 6-month rate by 10bps.


See our table below for the latest rates and terms which are available. Judo Bank’s 5-year deposit offers the highest rate in this week’s survey.
