Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Investment Funds: Discussion

Mr. Paul Joyce:

There are quite a number of things. The first is the growing number of mortgages owned by funds. The Deputy asked whether it has spiked in recent years or has gradually risen. I follow the Central Bank's mortgage arrears quarterly figures fairly religiously. I do not have my table with me, but I follow the percentages. I can send the table to the Deputy with regard to how the number has grown over time.
