FCA announce new mortgage rules
The Financial Conduct Authority has announced rule changes effective immediately regarding mortgages.
Among those, the FCA say it will mean people:
- Find it easier to reduce their mortgage term, helping to lower the total cost of borrowing and reduce the risk of repayment extending into retirement.
- More easily remortgage with a new lender, helping them access cheaper products.
- Be able to discuss options with their mortgage provider and get advice when they need it.
These chances are to “help people navigate their financial lives and support growth by ensuring more people can benefit from choice in the mortgage market and the security of homeownership.”
