Mortgage Lenders Postpone Bond Sales Amid Market Turbulence
Mortgage lenders are delaying the sale of property-backed bonds as investors demand higher yields to offset risks from interest rate market volatility.
Figure Technology Solutions Inc. halted plans to price a 346 million dollar residential mortgage-backed security scheduled for Thursday after failing to attract sufficient investor demand. This move reflects a broader trend among mortgage lenders who are postponing the sale of bonds backed by home and commercial-property loans.
Lenders are facing a market where investors demand higher yields to offset risks stemming from rate market turbulence. The inability to secure adequate demand has forced firms to pause offerings to avoid pricing securities at unfavorable terms.
