Net mortgage borrowing reached a record high of £17.9

£11.5 billion, and borrowing has averaged £5.4 billion in the 12 months to May
2021. The Bank says its figures suggest there has been a shortening of time
between a mortgage being approved and the lending itself, as there was no large
rise in the number of mortgage approvals in recent months, unlike ahead of the
strong net borrowing in March. Read more on the Financial Reporter website.
