Following the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) decision to decrease the official cash rate by 0.25% per annum (p.a.), CBA will decrease rates by 0.25% p.a. on eligible variable-rate business lending products. 

The rate reduction will apply to CBA Business Bank’s Variable Base Rate, Residential Equity Rate, and Overdraft Reference Rate, flowing through to eligible variable-rate business lending products including BetterBusiness Loans and Business Overdrafts.

These changes will be effective 22 August 2025.
