Committee of Inquiry into the Banking Crisis

Nexus Phase

Mr. Richard Burrows:

Well it always is a subjective process, except when the loans were issued, there was a free market operating. Properties were being bought and sold, landbanks were being bought and sold, there was a determination of what market value was. In the period that we are referring to here, that market had pretty well come to a complete halt. Therefore, it was extremely difficult, I think, to try and assign value in those circumstances.
