The household lending market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.06 trillion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to demographic trends and population dynamics, societal shifts in financial behavior, global economic factors and trade dynamics, innovations in loan products and structures. Major trends in the forecast period include use of alternative credit scoring models, shift towards securitization of household loans, implementation of open banking, focus on responsible and ethical lending practices, and integration of blockchain technology.
The significant surge in housing costs is poised to drive the expansion of the household lending market in the foreseeable future. Housing costs encompass rent and mortgage expenses, including principal repayment and mortgage interest, as well as additional charges for obligatory services, routine maintenance, repairs, taxes, and utility bills. The escalating housing costs limit individuals' ability to make a full cash payment for a house, prompting them to seek loans. The increasing housing costs are therefore contributing to the growth of the household lending market. For instance, in November 2022, the Federal Housing Finance Agency reported a 12.4% increase in home prices in the United States between the third quarters of 2021 and 2022. Compared to the second quarter of 2022, home prices saw a 0.1% increase. Hence, the substantial spike in housing costs is a driving force behind the household lending market.
A decline in interest rates is expected to be a catalyst for the household lending market during the forecast period. A decrease in interest rates implies a reduction in the cost of borrowing money, typically influenced by central banks or market forces. Lower interest rates make borrowing more affordable, stimulating demand for various lending products such as mortgages, personal loans, and home equity loans. Reduced interest rates also make home purchases more attractive to potential buyers. For example, according to Trading Economics, interest rates in the USA are projected to decrease from 4.75% in 2024 to 3.50% in 2025. Therefore, the fall in interest rates is anticipated to drive the growth of the household lending market.
Major companies in the household lending market are concentrating on developing innovative solutions, such as end-to-end digital home loans, to simplify the borrowing process. An end-to-end digital home loan refers to a completely online procedure for applying, approving, and managing a home loan without the necessity for physical paperwork or in-person meetings. For example, in November 2023, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited, a financial services company based in Australia, launched a new end-to-end digital home loan via its ANZ Plus mobile app, specifically targeting eligible owner-occupiers in metropolitan New South Wales and Victoria for refinancing. This innovative service facilitates rapid approvals, often within minutes, and offers upfront property valuations. With a competitive variable interest rate of 6.14%, the loan process is streamlined and user-friendly, allowing customers to easily track their applications.
Major companies in the household lending market are concentrating on increasing their investment in the home lending sector. The home lending business entails providing loans or mortgages to individuals or entities for the purchase of residential properties. For instance, in October 2023, Wells Fargo, an American multinational financial services company, established a more focused Home Lending division aimed at serving bank customers, as well as individuals and families in minority communities, in an effort to mitigate risk in the mortgage sector by resizing and narrowing its focus. Notably, the company is exiting the Correspondent business and intends to downsize its Servicing portfolio. These initiatives build on the progress the company has made over the past three years to simplify its operations in this area.
In March 2023, Barclays PLC, a UK-based multinational bank, acquired Kensington Mortgage Company Limited to strengthen its mortgage product portfolio. The acquisition integrated a specialized mortgage lender with a strong reputation in the UK market, aligning with Barclays' strategic goal of delivering next-generation, digital consumer financial services. Kensington Mortgage Company Limited specializes in providing mortgages for first-time buyers, self-employed individuals, contractors, and others.
