The EBA publishes peer review on supervision of creditors’ treatment of mortgage borrowers in arrears under the Mortgage Credit Directive
The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published a peer review on the supervision of creditors’ treatment of mortgage borrowers in arrears under the Mortgage Credit Directive (MCD), assessing the conduct supervisory approaches of competent authorities in this area. The review, which was developed in response to the current economic conditions and high interest rate environment, found that competent authorities’ supervision is overall effective and has been adapted to reflect the current interest rates environment and risks to mortgage borrowers. However, the review found differences in the level of scrutiny which competent authorities apply to MCD creditors, including the identification of risks borrowers are facing. The report sets out some follow-up measures, both for individual competent authorities, and for all competent authorities more generally, to ensure that supervisory measures to mitigate consumer detriment are taken before the detriment materialises. The report also sets out some best practices in this area that might be of benefit for other competent authorities to adopt.
