Following the recent interest rate decision of the Central Bank of Iceland, changes will be made to Landsbankinn’s interest rates. Interest rate changes also have regard for market rates and other funding terms of Landsbankinn. The main changes are as follows:
Deposit rates
- Variable interest rates on non-indexed savings accounts increase by 1.25 percentage points (pp).
- Customers get 8.25% interest by saving in the app.
- Interest on non-indexed Fasteignagrunnur accounts will be 8.90%.

Lending rates
- Variable interest rates on non-indexed housing mortgages increase by 1.25 pp, to 10.25%.

- Prime interest rates on non-indexed loans and overdrafts increase by 1.25 pp.
The new interest rate tariff enters into effect on Thursday, 1 June 2023. Changes to interest on loans governed by the Act on Consumer Loans or the Act on Mortgage Lending to Consumers enter into effect in accordance with notifications sent to customers in online banking.
How will this affect my loan?
If a loan (consumer loan or real estate loan to consumers) carries a variable interest rate, the change enters into effect 30 days after the interest rate notification. Interest on loans that carry a fixed rate do not change during the fixed rate period.
