[Photo] Jeonse Loan Interest Rate Breaks 6%... Further Increase Inevitable

On the 17th, a notice about loan interest rates was posted on the exterior wall of a commercial bank in downtown Seoul. Recently, as the base interest rate and market interest rates have surged, the upper limit of jeonse loan interest rates at major commercial banks, which is most sensitive from the perspective of ordinary citizens, has exceeded 6% for the first time in about 12 years. According to the financial sector on the 17th, the jeonse loan interest rates (guaranteed by the Korea Housing Finance Corporation, 2-year maturity) of KB Kookmin, Shinhan, Hana, and Woori Banks were at an annual rate of 4.010 to 6.208% as of the 16th./Reporter Kim Hyun-min kimhyun81@
