Funding Issues in the UK Mortgage Market
Datamonitor, Dec 2007, Pages: 16

Highlights of this title
In order to ensure that they can lend at any time, mortgage lenders require constant access to funds. Traditionallyand still accounting for around two thirds of fundingmortgage lenders have relied upon retail deposits. However, providers that do not have this luxury are forced to look elsewhere, usually to the wholesale markets instead.
The highly competitive nature and diversity of the UK mortgage market is a direct result of the development and heavier dependence on non-retail funding, and in particular, securitization. This financial development allowed new and innovative lenders into the marketplace during the 1990s and early 2000s.
Not all lenders are being impacted to the same degree by the liquidity shortage and securitization freezeindeed, it will be lenders in the specialist sectors (sub-prime, self-certification, and buy-to-let) who will be impacted more as these tend to rely on wholesale markets and securitization to a greater extent.
