Report this content

” Länsförsäkringar Hypotek is continuing to grow with great stability in the mortgage market. Net interest income strengthened, as did operating profit, and we continue to have favourable credit quality with a very low percentage of impaired loans. We can still note rising housing prices and believe that it is vital that our customers have the conditions for healthy and stable household finances. Mortgage repayments combined with other forms of saving are important prerequisites for building stable private finances and for this reason we welcome the new mortgage repayment requirements.” says Anders Borgcrantz, President of Länsförsäkringar Hypotek.
