MBE reveals MMR focus
Share
Industry trade bodies are gearing up for a series of in-depth debates on the Mortgage Market Review at the Mortgage Business Expo next month.
Both the Association of Mortgage Intermediaries seminars and seminars from the Intermediary Mortgage Lenders Association will be covering the MMR in depth.
The AMI programme of seminar sessions includes a presentation from Lesley Titcomb, director of small firms at the Financial Services Authority, on the MMR on day one.
Robert Sinclair, director at AMI, will look at the main MMR issues on day two.
The IMLA Lenders Theatre offers sessions on ‘The Future of the Mortgage Market’ with a presentation by Peter Williams, executive director of IMLA, with a discussion focussed on the likely outcomes of the MMR with panel attendees Stephen Smith, director of housing at Legal & General, and representatives from homelessness charity Shelter and from Nationwide.
Other AMI Theatre presentations cover the economy and its impact on the housing andmortgage markets, how advisers can market their businesses into the next decade, effective lead generation, plus making equity release work and the viability of sale-and-rent-back.
The IMLA Theatre also includes presentations from Nationwide and Platform, as well as a wider look at the buy-to-let market.
Daniel Nwaokolo, show director of MBE 2009, says: “Clearly, the mortgage market has a huge amount of information to digest with the recommendations made by the FSA in this week’s MMR and this is why we have a number of sessions dedicated to the review, its content and the future implications for intermediaries and advisers.
“This is a period of great potential change for the mortgage market and we look forward to welcoming all stakeholders to MBE next month to debate and discuss the future path of the mortgage industry.”
The event will take place on November 11 and 12 at Olympia in London.
