Talk:Prime rate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Usages Section

• The usage section says the prime rate is used for mortgages. However, I believe most mortgages are based off the 10 year bond. Maybe some mortgages use prime rate though. This ought to be looked into more. --Bdevel 04:15, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Needs non-US coverage

The article as it stands is almost solely concerned with the prime rate in US banking. However, many other countries also use their own prime rate as a reference point for loans. The coverage should be expanded beyond the US only. Rodparkes 01:44, 22 August 2007
