Good news for secured loan borrowers?? Talk of future interest rate cuts from the deputy head of the Bank of England.. Sir John Gieve hinted of a drop in the UK bank base rate currently at 5.25%, this was after two 0.25% rate reductions over the last six months from 5.75%.

With the recent credit crunch in the money markets and a sharp slowing of the UK economy, the bank is trying to stabilise the economy from falling into recession. This will reduce the cost of borrowing for people looking to take out a new loan or mortgage over the coming months, so lets hope it happens.
