Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited ("BOCHK") announced the provision of the Reverse Mortgage Programme launched by the Hong Kong Mortgage Corporation Limited to enrich its mortgage product offerings to meet the needs of customers at different stages of life. The Bank accepts customer applications starting from today.
The Reverse Mortgage Programme allows elderly people aged 60 or above to enjoy greater financial flexibility after retirement by pledging their self-occupied residential property in Hong Kong as security for a mortgage loan from the Bank. Borrower will receive monthly payouts over a payment term of either a fixed period of 10, 15 or 20 years or his/her entire life, or may receive the loan on a lump-sum basis according to his/her needs. The interest rate of the loan is determined by the Hong Kong Mortgage Corporation Limited. While continuing to live in the mortgaged property for the rest of life, the borrower is not required to repay the outstanding loan balance unless the reverse mortgage loan is terminated under certain specified circumstances. In addition, no penalty will be imposed if the borrower fully repays the outstanding loan amount and redeems the mortgaged property at any time.
