^Comparison rate calculated on a $150,000 secured loan over a 25 year term. WARNING: Comparison rate is true only for the examples given and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate. Comparison rates for variable interest only loans are based on an initial 5 year interest only period. During an interest only period, your interest only payments will not reduce your loan balance. This may mean you pay more interest over the life of the loan.

*A like-for-like loan means the product name (eg. Owner P&I VAR) and LVR tier (eg. Liberate, Evaporate, Celebrate) advertised to new customers must be the same product name and the same LVR tier that you have as an existing customer. The way we construct and name products may include a combination of the loan’s purpose (eg. Owner Occupier, Investor), repayment type (eg. P&I, IO), loan type (eg. Variable, Fixed), borrower type, different features or specific qualification criteria. None of these criteria will be designed to favour new customers over existing customers. If we ever tempt new customers with a lower rate for our like-for-like loan, anyone who’s on it will get the automatic rate-match. Sweet. It’s an Aussie first!
^^ Athena’s Standard Variable Rates are 2.49% OO P&I Var, 2.84% INV P&I Var, and 3.04% for OO and INV IO Var Products. Discounts are applied to P&I products based on Loan to Value Ratio (LVR), for ≤60% as 0.15%, 60-70% as 0.10% and 70-80% as 0.05%. IO products have a single discount across all tiers of 0.05%. These are available for new and existing customers. These are variable rates and discounts and they may change at any time. Note: If your LVR is exactly 60%, you would qualify for the ≤60% LR tier. If your LVR is exactly 70%, you would qualify for the 60-70% LVR tier.
**Total interest savings estimated across all Athena customers who refinanced to Athena’s variable rate. Assumptions have been made. Information correct as at December 2020.
1. Average interest savings estimated across all Athena customers who refinanced to Athena’s variable rate. We calculate the savings by comparing rates, any amount in redraw and offset between both loans and any fixed rate break fees (only where disclosed). All calculations assume the interest rate applies, and all repayments are made on time with no withdrawal of extra funds, for the life of the loan. We assume there are no ongoing fees charged on either loan, and both loans have identical terms remaining and repayment frequencies unless otherwise stated. Actual savings may differ from estimates. Information correct as at September, 2019.
2. Based on actual Athena customers who are ahead of their repayments and their redraw balance is above $0. Information correct as at September, 2019.
