Länsförsäkringar Hypotek: Interim Report January–March 2017

Report this content

”Länsförsäkringar Hypotek’s retail mortgage operations are continuing to perform strongly and we see an increase in the number of customers and we are successively growing our market shares. The high credit quality of the mortgage portfolio is the result of the conservative credit regulations and the stringent requirements placed on customers’ repayment capacity as well as the quality of collateral. We are closely monitoring how the macroeconomic risks related to households’ increasing indebtedness are managed and are following the trends in the housing market and continued rising housing prices.” says Anders Borgcrantz, President of Länsförsäkringar Hypotek.
