Soon after the Reserve Bank of Australia announced they will reduce the official cash rate from 1.50% to 1.25%, NAB and Commonwealth Bank have decided to pass on the full interest cut off their variable rate lending by 0.25%. ANZ and Westpac have decided not to pass on the full amount and only pass on 0.18% and 0.20% respectively.

Other lenders such as St George, Bank of Melbourne, Bank SA, and BOQ also reduced their rates by the prescribed amount.
