s devoy made this Official Information request to Reserve Bank of New Zealand

Reserve Bank of New Zealand did not have the information requested.

From: s devoy

Dear Reserve Bank of New Zealand,
does the RB monitor the percentage of interest-only mortgage loans held by LAQCs and LTCs ?
If so, what are the those percentages, and their $ values, bank by bank, and year by year since 2007?
Also, does the RB monitor the the number of interest-only loans held by individual LAQCs and LTCs, at least as a percentage frequency distribution, as in X % hold only 1, Y hold 2, etc, year by year since 2007 ?

Yours faithfully,

s devoy
