Internet mortgage trading hit by delay

Article Abstract:

Plans to create an internet-based trading system in the UK for mortgages have been deferred by the Council of Mortgage Lenders. The system is designed to allow intermediaries to scour the entire mortgage lending market to find the best deal, making the house buying and mortgage arranging process quicker in the process. The system is now scheduled for launch during the first three months of 1999 after the CML revealed that the scheme's complexity had forced the deferral.
