Publication presenting encumbrance of collateral for household mortgage loans in 2023 Q2 is now available

The data reported for household mortgage lending are based on HITREG, the MNB’s Credit Register. The publication presents the value of the so-called Loan-to-Value ratio (LTV: the ratio of the collateral value to the total amount of loan taken against it), which is used to measure the encumbrance of collateral for household mortgage loans, with regional and time-series charts.

Based on 2023 Q2 data, the encumbrance of collateral for household mortgage loans increased slightly compared to previous quarters, but excessive household indebtedness and financial stability risks are still not identified.

The publication can be accessed at this link.
