While there are still some financial sectors that still use SOR as their reference rate, in a few years’ time, SORA will take the place of SOR as one of the key benchmark rates in Singapore. MAS has also suggested that existing financial contracts that still use SOR should switch to SORA.
Sometimes referred to as variable or adjustable rate, floating rate housing loans change depending on how often you want your interest rate to be refreshed, as well as your risk appetite. Here are the different types of floating rates that you can compare.
First is the SIBOR. This type of rate changes everyday, and you can choose to have your interest rate refreshed on a monthly or quarterly basis.
The next type is board rate. Since the benchmark used for this rate is internally determined by banks, it’s less transparent than SIBOR and usually changes on a quarterly basis.
Fixed deposit home rates (FDHR) is the other floating-type home loan that’s linked to a bank’s fixed deposit account interest rate. So, if their interest rates go up, so do the home loan interest rates. You can say that it’s similar to board rate, but it’s published and therefore seen as slightly more transparent than board rate.
Lastly, SOR, another type of floating rate which will eventually transition to SORA in the coming years, is based on the foreign exchange rate with the US dollar.
