Regulation – For better or for worse? : A quantitative study on how the amortization requirements has affected mortgage advisors (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bostad är för de flesta den största investeringen en person gör och finansieras med hjälp av bolån. Bolån medför makroekonomiska risker, till följd av höga skuldkvoter och minskad konsumtion. För att minska dessa infördes år 2016 samt år 2018 amorteringskrav. Amorteringskraven kan ses som mindre reglering hos bankerna men är av många ansedd som ett komplext införande. Rådgivare på svenska banker är de som ansvarar för utlåning till privatpersoner och de har behövt anpassa sig efter de nya regelverken. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur amorteringskraven påverkat bolånerådgivare i form av stress, standardiserad arbetsprocess och inlärning. Detta för att undersöka om det upplevdes som stressande att behöva anpassa sig till amorteringskraven. Vidare undersöktes vilka konsekvenser amorteringskravens införande fått för bolånerådgivares arbete, huruvida det i takt med ett ökande antal regleringar blivit mer standardiserat. Slutligen studerades om amorteringskraven upplevdes som svåra att lära sig eller implementera i det dagliga arbetet. Genom en kvantitativ forskningsmetod, har rådgivare svarat på en enkät baserad på studiens syfte. Tidigare studier har i större utsträckning fokuserat på amorteringskravens ekonomiska konsekvenser samt hur de påverkat bostadsmarknaden. Syftet med studien är därmed intressant att undersöka utifrån ett yrkesprofessionellt perspektiv. 

Resultatet av studien visade ett samband mellan amorteringskravens införande och en ökad stressnivå hos rådgivarna. Resultatet stödjer även tidigare forskning vad gäller att rådgivarna upplevt att amorteringskraven bidragit till en mer standardiserad arbetsprocess. Däremot fanns det inget stöd för att amorteringskraven varit svåra att lära sig eller att implementera i arbetet med bolånerådgivning.

Abstract [en]

For most people, housing is the biggest investment in life, and it is financed by mortgages. However, this entails macroeconomic risks as a result of high debt ratios and reduced consumption. To reduce these risks, amortization requirements were introduced in 2016 and 2018. The amortization requirements can be seen as a minor regulation for the banks, but it is considered by many to be a complex regulation. Advisors in Swedish banks are the ones responsible for lending to private individuals and have therefore had to adapt to the new rules. The purpose of the study is to investigate how the amortization requirements has affected mortgage advisors in terms of stress, standardized work process and learning. This is with the reason to examine investigate whether it was considered stressful to have to adapt to the amortization requirements. Furthermore, the consequences of the introduction of the amortization requirements for the work of mortgage counselors were examined, whether, as a growing number of regulations became more standardized. Finally, it was studied whether the amortization requirements were perceived as difficult to learn or implement in the mortgage advisors daily work. Through a quantitative research, advisors have responded to a survey based on the purpose of the study. Previous studies have focused to a greater extent on the financial consequences of the amortization requirements and how they have affected the housing market. The purpose of the study is thus interesting to investigate from a professional perspective.

 

The results of the study showed a link between the introduction of the amortization requirements and an increased stress level of the advisers. The result also supports previous research in that the advisers considered that the amortization requirements contributed to a more standardized work process. However, there was no support for the fact that the repayment requirements were difficult to learn or implement in the work of mortgage counseling.
