Tracker Mortgages and Differential Pricing in Insurance: Discussion

Mr. Ger Deering:

I will park the tracker mortgage issue for a moment and answer the question generally. The vast majority of financial service providers have now got into that space and are operating the mediation process well. On tracker mortgage complaints, some have been slower than others but it would be fair to say now that they are all realising the value of mediation. That said, while up to 80% of complaints generally are resolved through mediation, which is very significant, that still leaves a substantial number of complaints. By the end of this year we will probably have issued the best part of 500 decisions, so not everything is being resolved in mediation.
