Mr Bouris’ comments come as rumours circulate that the major banks are planning to lift interest rates despite the RBA’s decision to keep the cash rate on hold.
“If the banks do decide to increase their rates, it’s important that Australians realise there is now strong and growing competition to the banks.
“It’s my intention to help ensure that they don’t treat home owners as cash cows. We are committed to giving Australians better choices and value.”
