  • Bank of England: Mortgage approvals fall to 17-month low

    January 2, 2015

    The number of mortgages rubber-stamped by banks dropped again in November, although by less than analysts had expected. Nevertheless, the figure is a 17-month low, underlining the trajectory of the market.   During the month, banks approved 59,029 mortgages, down from 59,511 in October, but above the 58,500 analyst consensus. The fall has been a [...]

  • UK house price growth slows again: Can stamp duty save the market in 2015?

    December 30, 2014

    We know the drill by now – slowing house price growth in many areas as demand wanes and the murmurings about a base rate rise reflect the logic that no matter what, it’s getting closer.    Why exactly demand is waning remains something of a mystery (more of that later).   Nationwide’s figures this month [...]

  • UK house prices 2014: Which area saw the most growth?

    December 28, 2014

    After a roller-coaster year for house prices the results are in: the London borough of Greenwich is the place for price rises. According to data from Halifax, house prices in Greenwich rose 24.6 per cent over the course of 2014, far above the national average of 8.5 per cent and almost twice that of the [...]

  • Which were the best and worst investments of 2014?

    December 22, 2014

    This year low interest rates have seen investors who bet on traditional investments receive returns tantamount to chickenfeed. Perhaps we should have given up before we'd all even started? Perhaps not. Investors who plumped for chocolate, property, the US dollar and Aim-listed company Fitbug would have watched as their money practically grew on trees. Conversely, [...]

  • Eight charts that sum up 2014

    December 22, 2014

    This year will be remembered for the fragmentation of mainstream politics, Scotland's near exit from the 307-year old union and an economy which the Bank's chief economist Andy Haldane described as "writhing in both agony and ecstasy." What does all that look like? Here are eight charts that sum up the year. (Source: Getty) 1. [...]

  • In charts: UK house price growth slows but first-time buyers still feel the pinch

    December 16, 2014

    First-time buyers are paying 12 per cent more this year than at the same point last year, according to data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS). The ONS revealed house prices were flirting with stagnation in October, when they increased just 0.1 per cent on a month-on-month basis. After yesterday’s data from Rightmove showed [...]

  • Stressing out: Britain’s lenders will be ticked off by the Bank of England as new tests bite

    December 14, 2014

    If you happen to stroll down to Threadneedle Street in the early hours of tomorrow morning and find a hive of activity do not be alarmed – it’s just the start of the Bank of England’s inaugural stress tests results. While most of London slumbers at 5am, prudential regulation authority (PRA) officials will be locked [...]

  • The other FCA concern: Why its new rules for bankers would hurt the UK economy

    December 8, 2014

    IT’LL be a busy week for the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Yesterday, the regulator announced a new strategic approach for the organisation, with key personnel changes and a “sharper focus” on the challenges ahead. A review by Clifford Chance partner Simon Davis into the FCA’s handling of an insurance probe earlier this year is also [...]

  • UK house price growth slows, but prices are five times average earnings

    December 4, 2014

    House prices across the UK were up 8.2 per cent in the year to November, another month of slower growth after October's 8.8 per cent rise. The price to earnings ratio is ticking up, however, and has reached a multiplier of 5.02. Halifax’s house price index also showed quarterly prices up 0.7 per cent (slowing [...]

  • House prices expected to slow after mortgage approval dip

    December 1, 2014

    THE MORTGAGE market continued to slow in October, reflecting a wider slump in the housing market. The number of loan approvals for house purchase was 59,426 in October compared with the average of 63,727 over the previous six months, according to Bank of England figures released yesterday. Mortgage approvals have dipped in each of the [...]
