Consumer Credit in Focus—DP 25/2 Mortgage Rule Review: the future of the mortgage market

Listen in for the latest developments in UK mortgage regulation with our insightful podcast, “Consumer Credit in Focus”, where experts from our London Financial Services Regulatory team break down the recent Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) discussion paper on possible future reforms to UK mortgage regulation.

In this episode, counsel Jean Price and associate Giannis Giortzis discuss with knowledge lawyer Louise Bralsford the paper’s key proposals ranging across wider lending, later life lending, customer understanding and rebalancing risk appetite in the mortgage market.

We explore what DP 25/2 may mean for the mortgage industry and how this fits into the UK’s broader vision for a more supportive and transparent financial landscape.

Join us as we delve into key elements like the interest rate stress test, lending to those with variable income and vulnerable customers and consider the FCA’s possible direction of travel, and what it means for consumers navigating financial decisions.

This is the second episode in our ongoing series. We recommend listening to Episode 1 for further information on the FCA’s proposed reforms to UK mortgage regulation.
