  • Description: According to De Montfort's Commercial Property Lending Report 2017, UK banks and building societies originated close to 70 per cent of UK commercial property mortgages in 2007, with this proportion having remained stable throughout the previous decade; yet this figure has fallen to less than 50 per cent over the past three years. [...]a move away from banks being such a dominant source of commercial real estate lending could help mitigate some of the threats to financial stability, because risks are no longer concentrated in one area. [...]a severe market downturn would invariably still have negative effects for domestic financial conditions, but the measures put in place since 2008 should at least help mitigate the effects.
