Amharc ar fhreagraThe Central Bank has informed me that, at end-2015, the total value of residential mortgages held by the non-banks was €8.6 billion, numbering 47,402 mortgage accounts for Principal Dwelling House and Buy to Let combined.
Further details are available on the Central Bank's website.
