Tracker Mortgages: KBC Bank

4:00 pm

Ms Dara Deering:

First, we need to determine that rate and make sure they go back to that rate as it was articulated originally. We are not doing average or prevailing rates. Second, we have to set the loan back up as a tracker, because it now tracks ECB. That process is to make sure the calculation is correct on a go-forward basis. That is the basis on which we then calculate redress. There are two stages in a process involving someone who makes and someone who validates the change.
