Nearchos Joannides said: “Lettings management shouldn’t be an afterthought bolted on after mortgage completion. It should be part of how brokers think about client lifetime value from day one.” Prop247 has pledged to close the gap that appears when broker relationships with buy-to-let (BTL) clients go quiet after completion.

Will any remaining bidders for easyJet please make their way to the boarding gate? In reality, we’ve probably seen the whole cast at this point because the arrival of US private equity firm Apollo, trumping Castlelake’s offer, is a surprise. But the outbreak of a competitive auction will come as a relief to easyJet’s board.For all the fake drama of Castlelake’s five offers, it was an act of timidity on the part of the easyJet chair, Sir Stephen Hester, to surrender at 690p, as argued here earlier this week.

“We’re looking to partner with the Maple 8 in ways that we have in the past. We feel that we’re aligned in terms of our investment approach, in terms of our social values, in terms of the mandate that those that invest in us expect, namely public pension funds,” added Peressutti. “We have both the social and investment alignment with the Maple Eight. If you start from that position, looking at Canada, looking at the mandate that Prime Minister Carney announced in terms of needed investment in the country, we thought it made all the sense in the world to…

On July 9, the CFPB issued a request for information (RFI) seeking comments on potential regulatory changes to reduce mortgage origination burdens and promote access to mortgage credit. The RFI was issued pursuant to Executive Order 14393, “Promoting Access to Mortgage Credit,” signed on March 13 (previously covered by InfoBytes here).

Credit: Getty Images If you read investing articles or watch CNBC, you’ll find that coverage is largely skewed in favor of both ends of the market-cap spectrum.
