SNS/SHoF Finance panel: New actors on the mortgage loans market

– consequences for financial stability and consumer protection

Mortgage funding is one of the most important functions for the financial sector. Mortgage loans are a very significant part of the balance sheet of the banking system. Recently new start-ups have begun challenging the established banks with new business models.

Is this development good or bad for financial stability? Is there a need for different consumer protection when the loans are produced by new actors?
