NAB has announced that it is passing on Tuesday’s 0.25-percentage-point Reserve Bank hike in full to its variable mortgage rates – the first of the big four banks to do so.

Starting Nov. 11, NAB’s variable mortgage rates for new and existing customers will increase by 0.25 percentage points. See table below.
