++Potential savings: gives an indication of the amount you could save on new repayments if you switched to the Westpac home loan example, with calculations based on monthly repayments, in respect to the original amount, annual interest rate and term you entered. Potential savings over the life of your loan are based on the difference between estimated total interest on your current home loan and the Westpac home loan.
