8. Can I buy a cap on a Discount Mortgage?

Share This

No.   Discount (or Discounted Rate) mortgages typically have their interest rate referring to the lender’s Standard Variable Rate (SVR).  Each lender may quote its own individual SVR and that rate does not have a formal connection to market benchmarks such as Base Rate and SONIA. Market participants do not offer caps against SVR .
