Report this content

”Länsförsäkringar Hypotek’s mortgage business continued to perform well in the first half of 2024.

Despite relatively low activity in the mortgage market, Länsförsäkringar remained successful in the first half of the year and was the bank that reported the highest growth in mortgage lending. With a high level of activity locally, combined with the strength of our brand, we were able to continue to help existing and new customers.
Financial market sentiment was predominantly positive in the first half of the year, while we continued to see signs of a recession. The housing market has shown signs of recovery in the first half of the year, resulting in rising prices.
Inflation has now also started to fall and we saw a first interest rate cut by the Riksbank. However, households remained impacted by higher interest rates and costs of living, but our customers are continuing to show good resilience.
Länsförsäkringar Hypotek’s very high credit quality and strong financial position remain firm, and in light of this, we are convinced that we will be able to continue to offer security in people’s everyday lives. With our competitive mortgage offering and our strong local profile, we aim to continue to do new mortgage business with more and more of Länsförsäkringar's customers and to see volumes grow.”, says Anders Larsson, President of Länsförsäkringar Hypotek
