COVID-19 and the mortgage credit risk market
Manage episode 267528765 series 2342257
COVID-19 has had far-reaching economic implications, but what does the pandemic mean for the U.S. mortgage market? On this episode of Critical Point, Milliman’s Mike Schmitz from the firm’s mortgage practice, and Chris Harner from Milliman’s Cyber Risk Solutions group, discuss the impact of the pandemic on mortgage defaults and the credit risk market. While unemployment spiked and remains high, Schmitz notes that mortgage risk is much more sensitive to home prices than unemployment rates, and currently all signs point to market trends that will not be as severe as during the global financial crisis.
