Outlines the market context, the scale of current LCHO programmes, the reasons for a new equity loan approach, the potential demand for a new loan product, and the risks and rewards of equity loans. Compares in conclusion the options for developing the range of the UK mortgage market including extending current offerings such as Homebuy and building a new LCHO equity loan market.
