Kris Brewster, the Skipton’s head of products, said: “To an extent, the reductions we’ve made to some rates reflect the current market trend – fuelled by factors including the introduction of the Government’s new Funding for Lending scheme.

“However, we’re also signalling our continued commitment to enabling homeownership, in line with our original mutual ethos, throughout the rest of this year and beyond.

“We’ve continued to punch above our weight in lending throughout 2012, after a significant increase in 2011. We intend to continue this positive trend into 2013, playing our part in returning the ailing mortgage market to health.”
