14 Sept 2022 Eurozone Monitor Will the Energy Crisis and ECB hikes lead to a Credit Crunch?

Melanie Debono (Senior Eurozone Economist)13th Sep 2022 15:27Eurozone, Daily Monitor

Our forecasts for ECB rates imply a rise in mortgage rates of over 400bp, raising the risk of defaults.
Rising mortgage rates will mean house prices will be falling by around 1% year-over-year by end 2023.
Higher risk is already discouraging banks from lending, but a credit crunch will likely be avoided.
