Almost seven million borrowers have remortgaged since 2005 - but current levels of refinancing are at a 15-year low. Why have people been remortaging, and are they withdrawing equity or paying down debt? Also, we support the Bank of England on the need for an exit strategy for Help to Buy, and publish new guidance on the Green Deal.

  2. CML and Bank aligned on need for Help to Buy exit strategy
