In an effort to push inflation down, a couple of weeks ago the Bank of England increased the base from 0.75% to 1%.

Whilst this may seem like a small increase, this can have the potential to negatively impact your finances if you are on a Variable rate mortgage product.

I have included a link directly to the BoE website which includes a calculator to see how your finances might be affected.

If you are not in a fixed deal, could you afford another rate increase?
