FX mortgage saga – draft bill on borrowers fund may spoil long-term profitability

President Andrzej Duda has submitted the updated draft bill on the Mortgagors Support Fund (established in 4Q15) to parliament. So far, the banks have committed PLN 600m (one-offs in the 4Q15 results) to the fund. However, the use of these assets has been extremely low, at 2% by the end of 2016. The key update of this bill is addressed towards FX mortgagors as the President’s office’s draft bill provides for the creation of a Restructuring Fund as a sub-fund of the Mortgagors Support Fund.
