Standard Chartered tightens mortgage rate ladder — 3-month up 4 bps, mid-to-long tenors rise 2–6 bps (12 June 2026)
Standard Chartered
Standard Chartered has revised its EIBOR-linked and SCBLR/SCBMR mortgage pricing effective 12 June 2026, with rates edging up across most tenors — the 3-month rose 4 bps, the 6-month held flat, and the 24–60 month tenors rose 5–6 bps. It’s a small, broad-based tightening, the opposite of the bank’s early-June move where longer tenors had eased.
Updated rate ladder (12 June 2026)
| Tenor | Previous | Updated | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-month | 3.71% | 3.75% | +4 bps |
| 6-month | 3.74% | 3.75% | Flat |
| 12-month (SCBLR / SCBMR) | 4.05% / 4.19% | 4.07% / 4.20% | +2 bps |
| 24-month | 4.39% | 4.44% | +5 bps |
| 36-month | 4.49% | 4.55% | +6 bps |
| 60-month | 4.52% | 4.57% | +5 bps |
What it means for borrowers
- The two short tenors now sit level: the 3-month rose 4 bps to 3.75% while the 6-month held flat at 3.75%, so there’s no longer a pricing gap between them.
- Mid-to-long tenors are modestly costlier: the 24-, 36- and 60-month rates each rose 5–6 bps, so borrowers locking a longer initial fixed period pay a little more — the biggest move is at 36 months (+6 bps to 4.55%).
- Net effect: a small, broad-based tightening that reverses part of the early-June easing on longer tenors. These are reference-rate moves of a few basis points, not a major repricing.
