Stephen Leonard, director of mortgages at A&L, said: "While fixed rate mortgage rates are on the up, interest rates are historically low and stable and as a result base rate trackers are becoming more popular to many borrowers. In response to this demand we've cut the rates on our two-year base rate trackers to offer greater value. Trackers will suit those who have a degree of flexibility in their budgets and can benefit from any cuts in interest rates as well as cover any increases."
