Earlier in the week, CBA and NAB moved rates north on a few products, but rates at the majors are still uninspiring compared to the market leaders.

Heartland Bank currently holds that mantle, at 5.35% p.a. for a 12-month term.

Rates below 5.00% p.a. across most terms nowadays are hardly worth writing home about.

Subsequent to that news, here were a few other banks that pushed some TD paper.

Macquarie Bank tinkers around the edges

Australia's fifth-largest bank moved rates on six- and 12-month terms. 

  • 6 Months: 5 basis point cut to 4.85% p.a.
  • 12 Months: 5 basis point rise to 5.00% p.a. 

This adds to the movements made a couple weeks ago.

Interest on these is payable at maturity, and the minimum deposit is $5,000.
