TORONTO -- Royal Bank of Canada (TSX:RY) is once again boosting some of its home mortgage rates effective Tuesday.

The increases will range from one-tenth to three-tenths of a point, depending on the type of mortgage.

Royal Bank says its special discounted four-, five-, seven-, and ten-year rates are going up to 3.39, 3.69, 3.99 and 4.29 per cent respectively.

Royal increased some of its mortgage rates earlier this month following a plunge in bond prices in May.

Scotiabank (TSX:BNS) and TD Bank (TSX:TD) have also recently increased their special discounted rates.
