View answerThe Central Bank does not publish the number of securitised mortgages. However, Table A.18.2 of the Money, Credit and Banking statistics gives the value of securitised mortgages (no longer on the balance sheet of credit institutions) advanced to Irish resident private households for the purpose of house purchase by within-the-State offices of credit institutions.
This total was €36.7 billion at end-March 2015.
