A recent release by ratings agency Fitch said ‘cure-rates’ – the percentage of delinquent loans that return to normal payments each month – has fallen to 6.6 per cent from an average of 45 per cent in the six years to 2006.
According to the release, 25 per cent of the ‘cured’ loans were first modified by the lenders so that the borrowers were paying a reduced monthly repayment.
