The representatives of all the banks who have appeared before the committee have told us that they have sold portfolios of mortgages to vulture funds, and they could not give a commitment that they would not do so in the future. Will the Central Bank stop loans being sold to unregulated vulture funds? Is there any mechanism available to the Central Bank to stop that happening?
