While many central banks believe any inflation should be a temporary blip, it seems Swiss mortgage lenders are not so sure.
Rates are climbing – and analysts suggest the banks are expecting inflation to stay.
The ten-year fixed rate rose to its highest level since spring of 2019 according to a survey published by Moneyland.ch.
It’s risen from 1.11% in August to 1.31% now and the five-year term is up from point 93% to 1.02%.
Moneyland says this signals the lenders believe sustained higher inflation is coming which would mean a rise in the base interest rates. Which are currently at all time lows.
