  15. The Mortgage Insurance Programme • Hong Kong mortgage market was originally provided only 70% of loan to value to the clients • In March 1999, it expand to 85% • August 2000, it expand to 90% • And July 2004, it further expand to 95% and this carry on until now • These change is good to consumer but creates more risk to banks

  38. 7. CASE STUDY

  39. CASE STUDY • Mr. Bean is a self-employed professional lawyer and his job provides him a stable income at round HK$150,000 each month. He has targeted wonderful dream-house Evelyn Towers (雲景臺), at North Point Hill. The building is well known for luxury and it must be very expensive • Before he is going to join any mortgage plan, he decides to valuate his targeted house price. The following diagrams shown below are the process of the property that Mr. Bean has conducted the property valuation through the Bank of China’s website

  40. CASE STUDY

  41. CASE STUDY • After that, the house possibly costs him about HK$10,000,000 • He has inquired the banks for the various mortgage plans to suit him • There are his main considerations for the offered Mortgage plans

  42. CASE STUDY • No matter Mr. Bean has decided to join the 95% mortgage plan or the general one, he still needs to considerate with the amount of installment repayment in each month • If the amount of installment repayment in each month is more than his half of his monthly income (Optimal Installment amount = HK$75,000), he fails to apply the any mortgage plans • Fortunately, roughly estimated maximum loan amount provided by the bank’s website is more than enough for him to buy his dream house

  43. CASE STUDY- CONLCUSION • For our conclusion, Mr. Bean is less likely to apply 95% Mortgage plan since it involves large amount of loan. • The banks treat this transaction as a special case if the loan amount is more than 7 millions dollars. • For the risk management, the interest rate is not only associated with the loan amount, but also the repayment method and repayment period.

  44. CASE STUDY- interest rate • Here are the simplest four situations: • High loan amount needs higher interest rate and long repayment plan needs higher interest rate

  45. 8. Conclusion 1. Fast means E.g. The95% Mortgage Insurance Programme provided by Standard Chartered : one hour to approve the applications of applicants  The approval of mortgage plans will be faster
