Paul Hunt, managing director of Square 1 Media, said: “Since holding the inaugural Mortgage Market Debate in May last year, we have been planning the next one for a while.
“Therefore, with the recent election, it seemed a fantastic opportunity to get the industry together to discuss views and findings from the first few months of a new Government.
“A huge thanks to all the panellists who have agreed to take part and we will look forward to a lively and entertaining debate.”
