“Historical decline” in interest rates: this is the effect on savings, investments, loans and real estate

A historic dive. The ten-year interest rate has fallen so sharply in our country in recent weeks. From more than 3.6 percent at the beginning of October to just over 2.5 percent this week. In other words, the fastest drop in interest rates since 1990. And that has consequences. For real estate, borrowing, saving, investing and the government treasury. Economist Koen De Leusen and professor of financial economics Hans Degryse list the impact on your money.
