Effective 1 August 2022, the Standardised Base Rate replaced the Base Rate (BR) as the reference rate for new retail floating-rate loans. Existing BR- and BLR-based loans applied before the effective date will continue to be referenced against the BR and BLR respectively. However, after the effective date, the BR and BLR will move exactly in tandem with the Standardised Base Rate as any adjustments to the Standardised Base Rate will simultaneously be reflected in the corresponding adjustments to the BR and BLR. 3.
