Growth Series Live On-Demand: How Mortgage Products are Funded

We held a live webinar on how mortgage products are funded in October 2023.

During the session, Iain Cunningham, Corporate Account Manager at Accord Mortgages, was joined by Craig Huitson, Senior Manager - Mortgage New Business Trading at Accord Mortgages, who discussed how lenders fund and how this affects the interest rates of products.

The session also covered issues including:

• How brokers can explain pricing to their clients
• Risk-based mortgage pricing
• How 2023 will end and what lies in store next year

During the session, Craig pointed attendees to Investing.com - a useful resource where you can keep track of how swap rates might perform. In particular:

• GBP 2 Years IRS Interest Rate Swap Bond Yield
  This allows you to access historical data for GBP 2 Years IRS Interest Rate Swap Bond Yield. The yield on a bond represents the return investors will receive by holding the bond to maturity.
  

• GBP 5 Years IRS Interest Rate Swap Bond Chart

Craig also took questions from the audience, which helped to highlight issues that are currently on the minds of mortgage brokers.
