Financial Inclusion: Mortgage Guarantee Company ensure low risks mortgage loans for individual with low credit score

Suppose two borrowers with the same age, income profile, and credit score made an application for a home loan. One of the borrowers was granted a loan with a 20-year tenure with an interest of 8.25% and the same rate of interest offered by the bank to the borrower with a high credit score and sanctioned with a low loan amount with a high rate of interest. The borrower is required to furnish more necessary paperary evidence to show his creditworthiness. Moreover, the same situation is faced by borrowers with no regular salaried incomes. It became hard for bank and mortgage financial companies to assess their repayment capability. Such customers find themselves out from the home loan market and prefer to take loans from those institutions that charge high rates of interest. Globally, mortgage guarantee companies work around these kinds of problems. The mortgage guarantee concept gained traction in India as the mortgage guarantee corporation associates work along with the banks and mortgage financial companies to ensure the risk of lending could get reduced to certain consumers. Within the last decades, the Mortgage guarantee companies offered INR 15,400 crore of home loans, which has benefited more than 85100 borrowers. It is more likely to be accepted that the scale of mortgage guarantee companies' operations will grow rapidly with plans to guarantee INR 10,000 crores worth of home loans in the next financial year

How Mortgage Guarantee Company Works?

At the time of applying for a mortgage loan, the borrower who does not exist in the ambit of a bank or non-banking financial company, then he or she may be given an option where a small fee is required to be paid for the loan and granted with a higher loan amount for a long tenure. The borrower may pay the loan fees of 0.25% in addition to the rate of interest. Suppose a normal borrower received a loan at the rate of 8.5 %; then such a borrower may get the loan amount with a rate of interest of 8.75%. Now, the borrower is required to pay an extra sum of INR 17 monthly on each INR 1 lacs borrowed. Here, the MGC will get 1.3% of the loan amount in the form of fees for providing the guarantee.

In the absence of this, the borrower may either visit any lending financial institution that provides a high rate of interest on a loan or get a lower loan amount. In the Indian market, if the loan turns bad, it means there is no payment made for 90 days after the guarantee kicks in, and IMGC is more likely to make its share of the payout. Banks chase their borrower for money and to decide the property to foreclose upon. As the property is sold through the SARFESI Act, the mortgage guarantee company gets back its guarantee shares.

Market Size of Mortgage Guarantee Company

Indian Mortgage Guarantee Corporation aims to double its business operation over 9,000 crores in FY24. It guaranteed INR 4,800 Crore worth of home loans during the fiscal year of 2022-23. The home loan mortgage guarantor is more likely to increase its portfolio on the guarantee to mover 30,000 crore by the end of the 2023 year. It has surpassed INR 20,000 crore in home loan guarantees for customers of more than 1 lakh within the 400 locations within the country since its inception in 2012. The IMGC is looking forward to business upward of more than INR 9,000 crore to achieve growth during FY-24 and made a statement to add more lenders to increase penetration within the existing lenders. Approx. 85% of IMGC's portfolio reflects the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna and the average ticket has gone down by 19 lakhs from 26 Lakhs during the past 4 years due to efforts made towards affordable housing segments. The mortgage guarantee company, along with Enact MI, the Brookfield Group, the National Housing Bank, the IFC World Bank Group, and Asian Development Banks, associates with 23 lending financial institutions to extend home loan guarantees to borrowers. This will guarantee 20% of the loan amount, with a rough value of 2 years of equated monthly instalments (EMI). In case any borrower defaults on EMIs for 3 months, then the company will commence the EMI payments while the lender executes the recovery process. South India accounts for 30 to 35 % of the company share, where INR 2300 crore home loans are guaranteed in FY23. It reflects a huge scope for growth of 51 lakh houses sanctioned under PMAY in southern India, and 41 lakh houses have a shortage, creating a demand for housing. The global mortgage guarantee market was valued at approx. USD 7.82 billion during 2021 and is projected to reach beyond USD 37.64 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 19.07% from 2023-2030. A rapid increase in innovative technological development in mortgage lending automation and machine learning usages in mortgage lending is projected to boost the mortgage lending industry in the future. The Indian home loan mortgage market is poised to grow by a CAGR of 7% during the 2023-28 forecast period. With the growth and rise in favourable conditions like income levels, enhanced affordability rates, and fiscal support, the demand for home loans is expected to grow in the Mortgage guarantee landscape. Meanwhile, during the pandemic, the mortgage guarantee finance market has been heavily affected, and because of the lockdown, jobs were limited and saw a high drop in income rate, even jobs left out, which resulted in a huge fall in the housing market and its demands going down.

Key Trends Shape in the Indian Mortgage Company Market

Moreover, the mortgage market has been growing steadily as various factors are driven, including urbanization, increasing disposable incomes, and government programs to encourage the development of the housing and real estate sector. Housing finance companies, NBFCs, and banks are more likely to represent the mortgage guarantee market size. The market exhibits significant growth potential due to the large population size of the country and increased demand for housing.

The availability of Affordable Housing drives the market size.

The market has been underdone with structural transformation within both the demand and supply over the last years. This transformation made a safe and attractive environment for buyers to purchase a home. Housing loans are more likely to contribute 50% of personal/retail loans. Although the affordability for housing has also enhanced within the last 5-6 years and reached beyond its best level during the last fiscal years, it stays attractive. It is expected to boost user demand in segments of affordable and mid-income levels. The government has launched different schemes to promote the affordable housing segment, including the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna (PMAY), with the intent to offer housing for all. Such a government approach has boosted and enhanced the market size of mortgage Guarantee Companies as it encourages individuals to purchase homes.

Digitalization

This trend serves mortgage companies within India to adopt digital technologies into business operations, such as digital Paper works, the online application process, and the use of data analytics to assess business risks and enhance customer profiles. Further, the pandemic has boosted the growth of this trend as remote-less and contactless financial services were prominently important.

Competitive Landscape

The mortgage guarantee market seems competitive as both the established and new players are competing within the market for shares; traditional players, including banks, HFCs, and NBFCs, are prominent among competitors, while the traditional players, such as fintech, startups are trying to enter the mortgage guarantee market through their offerings as innovated and advanced solutions for the borrowers.

Regulatory Changes

Market regulators like the Reserve Bank of India and the National Housing Bank are formulating regulatory changes to enhance the mortgage market stability and save the borrower and lender by promoting responsible lending practices.

Fluctuating Interest Rate

The interest rate in the mortgage guarantee landscape comes under the influence of different factors like RBI policy rates and market forces. Borrowers should concentrate on these rates, which can easily impact their affordability level and the decision to have a loan.

NPA Concern

Non performing assets (NPA) were one of the main concerns during the COVID-19 mortgage guarantee market, as there seemed to be a huge downturn in the economy and people lost their jobs. Lenders must assess the borrower's creditworthiness and use risk mitigation strategies.

Mortgage Guarantee Products within India

The concept and Idea of mortgage guarantee was adopted in the financial system in the year of 2012, and the first mortgagor guarantor, IMGC, was duly introduced. IMGC is more like a joint venture among the Asian Development Bank, the National Housing Board, the International Finance Corporation, and Genworth Financial. Moreover, the entity is acting as a service provider to ICICI Bank, LIC Housing Finance, Axis Bank, SBI, Tata Capital, and many more.

RBI guideline on Mortgage Guarantee Company

The Finance Minister of India, during the Union budget of 2007-08, announced that “Our people want housing loans. Banks and housing finance companies that lend against the mortgage would have greater comfort if the mortgage can be guaranteed through a three-way contract among borrower, lender, and guarantor.” Regulation will be put in place to allow the creation of mortgage guarantee companies. Accordingly, the RBI has formulated a draft scheme granting the certificate of registration for the mortgage Guarantee Company. Further, the draft discussed and received recommendations and approval from the central government to specify the mortgage guarantee company, and the notification in this regard dated 15th January 2008 was released.
