LONDON, June 09, 2023–(BUSINESS WIRE)–KBRA UK (KBRA) releases a research report examining the equity release mortgage (ERM) market in the UK and supportive demographic trends that signal potential expansion across the rest of Europe.

KBRA expects issuance of ERM-backed RMBS to continue rising in the UK and potentially expand in Europe. In the report, we highlight the key features and notable trends in this burgeoning corner of RMBS.
