Glasgow Mortgage and Protection Roadshows Q1 2015

Time and date: 24 March 2015
Location: Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport
Organiser: Society of Mortgage Professionals
Website: Click here

As we head towards the end of our first year since the introduction of MMR it is an ideal opportunity for advisers to take stock and consider the key opportunities for 2015 and beyond. A collapse in oil prices and a Eurozone now in deflation are further evidence of just how brittle the global recovery is. Activity in the mortgage market has eased, but is this a usual seasonal drop or an indicator of sentiment? Is the upward trend in the buy-to-let market an indicator of investor confidence or just a mask for wholesale debt refinancing?

The Society of Mortgage Professionals is running five half day roadshows in March, with updates and insights from a range of sector specialists, to help members understand the latest market developments and identify potential new business opportunities.
