A tiger by the tail: estimating the UK mortgage market vulnerabilities from loan-level data

Following the global financial crisis, macroprudential regulators in a number of countries took actions to mitigate risks arising from stressed mortgage markets to financial and economic stability.

Mariana Gimpelewicz describes the first ever estimate of the current stock of all regulated UK mortgages at the level of individual loans using data from the flow of new mortgages.
