Abstract
Introduction
The Australian mortgage market has tentatively started to recover from the
effects of the global financial crisis. Lending commitments have bounced back
after a sharp fall in 2008, largely based on unusually high first time buyer
activity. This report puts the current situation in its historical
perspective, describes current trends in the market, and analyzes future
developments.
Scope of this research
- Includes a comprehensive overview of the Australian residential mortgage
market.
- Draws upon a large Datamonitor consumer survey to gain insights into the
current mindset of the Australian mortgagor.
- Includes market overview, analysis of competitors and outline of future
developments.
- Provides three scenario forecasts for lending commitments in Australia
until 2013.
Research and analysis highlights
Lending commitments have grown strongly over the last ten years, but dipped in
the first half of 2008. In July 2000 lending commitments of A$7.5 billion were
granted, and in July 2009 A$22.5 billion of lending commitments were granted,
representing a CAGR of 12.9% over the period.
First home buyer activity has surged as a result of government subsidies and a
low interest rate environment. The absence of non-bank lenders and a consumer
preference for the perceived safety of large domestic banks led to
opportunities for the largest four banks.
Satisfaction levels have converged between different financial institutions in
the last year. In both 2008 and 2009, NAB was the lowest rated bank in terms
of proportion of quite or very satisfied mortgagors, and ANZ was the highest
rated, but the difference between the institutions was greater in 2008.
Key reasons to purchase this research

scenario-based forecasts of Australian lending commitments until 2013.
- Understand the challenges the mortgage industry is facing, as well as the
opportunities, at this pivotal time.
- In-depth analysis of how Australian providers approach different issues,
allowing you to reassess your strategy.
