I am informed by the Central Bank of Ireland that the volumes of securitised mortgage assets (across securitisations and covered bonds) on the retail bank’s balance sheets are as set out below;

AIB: €7,304mn – 21% of the total mortgage portfolio;

BOI: €14,176mn – 28% of the total mortgage portfolio

PTSB: €5,342mn – 27% of the total mortgage portfolio

Securitised mortgages are generally held on the balance sheets of retail banks in order to act as contingent liquidity (under the Eurosystem collateral framework) for accessing Central Bank borrowing facilities.
