ECB interest rate hike increases pressure on mortgage payments, Deco PROteste warns

The European Central Bank (ECB) raised interest rates by 0.25 basis points, setting the deposit rate at 2.5%, which will increase pressure on Portuguese families with mortgage loans, Deco Proteste warned. For a 250,000 euro loan over 30 years with a 1% spread, monthly payments can exceed 1,180 euros, depending on the reference rate used. The 6-month Euribor, the most used in Portugal, has risen 26% since the beginning of the Middle East conflict, and 12-month Euribor approached 3% in August. The association recommends that consumers check their payment review dates, simulate different scenarios, and consider alternatives such as renegotiation or transferring the loan to another institution.
