But when you are saving money, interest rates refer to the rate that your bank or building society will pay you to borrow your money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\" style=\"background-color:#1c36ba\"><strong>What are UK Interest Rates in 2023? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There has been so much talk about interest rates in the UK right now is because the Bank of England has raised its interest rates for the 13<sup>th<\/sup> time in a row to try and stop the quick increase in prices. The bank rate has now gone up from 4.5% to 5% which means that more expense could be on the cards for you if you\u2019re a homeowner. In fact, the Bank rate is at its highest for 15 years and the experts don\u2019t think that the increase will stop there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But why does the interest rate keep getting increased? Well, the theory is that by making it more expensive to borrow money, the less people must spend which will bring down the demand and slow price rises. This has been the rationale behind many banks rate increases since December 2021 to try and control inflation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\" style=\"background-color:#1c36ba\"><strong>How do interest rates affect you? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the main ways in which increased interest rates will affect you is by the rise of your monthly mortgage payments. Almost a third of households in the UK have a mortgage, with more than 1.4 million people on tracker and standard rate deals. Therefore, when interest rates rise many households will see an immediate increase in monthly payments. So, with rising mortgage rates in 2023 the average household has less money to spend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\" style=\"background-color:#1c36ba\"><strong>Will interest rates go down in 2023? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no way of knowing for sure if or when interest rates will start to come down, but it is probable to assume that until inflation comes down, the Bank of England are unlikely to lower the base rate. This is to prevent a great level of spending which could send inflation spiraling even further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But we do have some good news! The Bank has said that inflation rates should drop significantly throughout the rest of the year. While this won\u2019t mean an immediate drop in interest rates, it could definitely be the end of rising interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\" style=\"background-color:#1c36ba\"><strong>How our deals can help you<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While you may be feeling a bit concerned about the UK interest rates 2023, it is important to remember that there is support out there for you to help you through.
