After the ESBG meeting with the European Commission on 30 September, we have recently shared some documents as a follow-up.
ESBG members finalised a position paper on the MCD review, and shared two briefing documents on the topics of reverse mortgages and green/energy efficient mortgages. These are topics on which the Commission is keen to receive more information from the national level to consider possible actions at the EU level.
