True. The banks and building societies are reverting back to the management style they used before sub-prime lending.

Now, you will only get a mortgage or a loan if you have an excellent credit rating, own your own house and present a minimal non-repayment risk.

Pity they did not stick to this old tried and trusted management style because had they done so we would not be in the financial mess we are in.
