Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Discussion with Bank of Ireland
12:30 pm
Mr. Richie Boucher:
The disclosure is the negative equity. That is what we do; we do not do a realisable value. The vast majority of our mortgages are being repaid on time. Customers are able to meet their obligations and a primary assessment of our ability to have mortgages repaid is the customer's ability. We do not see a correlation between negative equity and ability to repay.
