Abstract:
The article notes that forecasting of creditworthiness of borrower in case of a natural person, is extremely rare in banking practice. In this regard, the author suggests making such forecasts more often using a combination of indicators. The author proves that the cost of mortgage finance sources, i.e. the deposit (passive) rate is the starting point for calculating the interest rate of the mortgage loan.
