What?
This chapter applies if a firm:
- (1)
enters into a home finance transaction with a customer; or
- (2)
administers a home finance transaction which was entered into with a customer; or
- (3)
arranges or advises on or makes a further advance or other variation to the terms of a home finance transaction entered into with a customer.
This chapter applies in relation to further advances and other variations (as specified in MCOB 7.6.7 R - MCOB 7.7.4 R in relation to a regulated mortgage contract) regardless of whether they are variations to an existing home finance transaction or are such that they involve the customer entering into a new home finance transaction.
This chapter also applies in relation to regulated mortgage contracts in circumstances where the original mortgage lender has passed on ownership of the loan to a third party through securitisation. In such a case, the rules in MCOB 7.5 - MCOB 7.7.4 R will apply to the firm which administers the regulated mortgage contract.
In MCOB 7.6.7 R (Further advances), MCOB 7.6.18 R (Rate switches) and MCOB 7.6.22 R (Addition or removal of a party to the contract), if a customer submits an informal application as his first contact with a firm, the illustration required to be provided to a customer in accordance with those rules must be provided and the transaction must not proceed until the customer has made a formal application confirming that it should proceed.
In relation to a lifetime mortgage, this chapter is modified by MCOB 9 (Equity release: product disclosure).
