1
I'm Marja Hoek -Smith.
2
I teach at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
3
And we are going to talk about housing finance
4
and the need to bring
5
that to scale in order to solve the massive housing problems of frontier markets and rapidly urbanizing countries.
6
We all know the facts.
7
We can look at countries like India, where formal housing production, even for the middle income groups,
8
is far below the urban household formation.
9
And every year, the backlog of housing and therefore informal slum areas increase in size.
10
But even in countries where we have formal supply coming into the housing market,
11
like South Africa, which has built two to three million new houses for free for the bottom end of the income distribution,
12
even that over the last decade has not been able to solve the housing problems of South Africa, and informal housing is growing.
13
On top of that, the formal market will not supply housing for the segment just above the free housing program
14
because the market is distorted there.
15
So we have indeed no housing construction for that middle income group
16
that needs it most and they then have no choice then to go into the informal areas and other housing solutions.
17
So the housing market for most countries, most frontier countries, looks a little bit like this.
18
The top part of the income distribution is well provided for with finance and housing housing,
19
there are subsidized programs, normally very small, for the upper middle income group, and then there are slum programs,
20
upgrading programs, and new sites and services type housing for the lowest income segment, but normally very small.
21
So we have, first of all, a gap in the middle income market,
22
and we have growing informal areas.
23
That picture keeps continuing to repeat itself and
24
when we do not have a housing solution for the middle income groups
25
we cannot possibly begin to think we can solve the problem of the lower income households.
26
Yet there is very little policy attention given by international programs like the Millennium Development Goals
27
and other international programs to that larger housing policy picture.
28
And that really is what is needed at the moment.
29
We know what to do.
30
We need the private sector to come in to that middle income market and deliver mass housing for the teachers,
31
the nurses, the clerical assistants who have stable incomes,
32
and traders, small commercial outfits,
33
owners of informal businesses, with rather stable incomes who can pay for a mortgage to the house
34
or can pay for formal rental housing.
35
But there is simply no stock coming to the market, and that is because they have no access to finance.
36
So if we free up,
37
if we can find ways to involve the markets in providing housing for that middle income group,
38
we free up government funds and international funds for upgrading informal areas.
39
What do we need to do in practice?
40
We have to start from the developer.
41
What does the developer need in order to serve that lower middle income housing market?
42
The first thing the developer needs is reliable mass finance for the end user.
43
He will not produce housing if he cannot offload his stock and offload it fast.
44
The same for rental housing.
45
He has to have rental investors that have access to housing finance to buy that stock.
46
Of course, the developer will need...
47
access to finance himself, project finance, debt and equity.
48
He will need real site provisions, density requirements that he can set according to the needs of the site,
49
permitting procedures and all those issues.
50
But I'm sure other lecturers in this series have talked about those.
51
Lastly, the developer will need a competitive market.
52
If we have heavily subsidized markets just below the market that the developer is supposed to serve for the middle income groups,
53
it's very difficult for him to break even.
54
Let's look at that mortgage picture, if that is so critical.
55
Most countries that are the focus of this lecture, the frontier countries in Asia,
56
the Middle East, Sub -Saharan Africa, have exceedingly small mortgage markets,
57
not more than 5 % in many cases to 10 % of GDP, the way we express the size of the mortgage market.
58
These mortgage markets are growing with GDP, which you can see in this slide.
59
There is a lot of noise, it is not a nice linear line, and a lot has to do with the policy environment,
60
whether mortgage markets can grow or not.
61
So mortgage markets also, and related to GDP growth, they grow with urbanization.
62
But at the moment there is stress in that model.
63
Countries are urbanizing very rapidly but their mortgage markets are lagging behind and therefore there is no way to actually
64
provide formal housing for the masses that flow into urban areas.
65
I have given here the slide on Asia, you can see that countries like India, Indonesia have tiny mortgage systems.
66
At the same time, they are urbanizing 40, 50, 60 percent.
67
So those countries should be the focus of a lot of attention on growing their mortgage sectors.
68
What we want to do is to make the mortgage sector actually come down at least to the 50th percentile,
69
then that population group can be served by the market
70
and resources can be applied to take care of the bottom end of the income distribution.
71
How to do this?
72
How to get there?
73
That is the question.
74
I have three points.
75
First, the administrative systems have to be in place and the legal systems to make mortgage markets grow.
76
And the first area of concern is, of course, the lack of property rights.
77
In countries where only 25 % of the urban areas have title,
78
like in Egypt, you want to have a concerted effort to expand these systems.
79
And there are new technologies that allow property rights to be expanded very efficiently.
80
So that is the first concern.
81
The other areas are easier to address.
82
The legal framework, there have to be laws in place to enforce mortgage contracts.
83
Of course, we have to have a regulatory environment that is overlooking the mortgage sector to keep it stable.
84
We have to have good ways to understand the actual property values in urban areas.
85
And that is not so simple.
86
We need to understand cycles and we need data for that.
87
So the data systems have to be brought online.
88
And then the last thing is you have to look at the taxation and fee structure for mortgages.
89
Again, the example of India shows
90
that roughly 25 % of the end -user price of the house is going to taxes and fees.
91
So before you want to subsidize this sector,
92
you want to look at the fee structure and tax structure that this sector is paying.
93
The second area, and a much more complicated one, is you have to look at the structure of the mortgage sector.
94
Often the mortgage markets are not very competitive.
95
We have...
96
oligarchic banking systems in many countries in sub -Saharan Africa and Asia.
97
And when you have no competition in that market, you do not get innovation.
98
You have very high margins and therefore costly loans. So,
99
we want to have an understanding on what can be done to break up either state monopolist banks
100
or oligarchic housing finance systems so that the system can be more innovative.
101
Many countries have tried out different measures from the financial sector
102
charter in South Africa to the CRA in the United States
103
that force banks to move down market and figure out how to do it.
104
But there are other ways.
105
Thailand did it by using its government housing bank to begin to compete with the private sector.
106
And that has brought margins down and increased mortgage lending to lower and middle income groups.
107
The third area policymakers can look at is providing incentives for lenders to come down market
108
and for consumers who need some extra assistance to get the down payment together or pay for the monthly payments.
109
Those incentives, though, often lead to market distortions, and you want to be very careful in the design.
110
Often the government is exposed to a lot of the risk once they put incentives in place.
111
And we have seen these systems go wrong recently in the United States, in Mexico and other countries.
112
So where does that leave us?
113
We know that the middle and middle income groups are not catered for in the housing market.
114
We know we need to expand housing finance systems with products that are really available for mass production of housing.
115
And we need a concerted effort by different policy makers to get there.
116
The problem is that this area is a little bit of no man's land.
117
It is the central bank, the Ministry of Finance, but also the ministries of housing that have to be involved.
118
So it needs to really be a joint venture, a joint push to make that market grow.
119
And it has to be done in collaboration with the private sector.
120
However, I want to close this lecture with one caution
121
we cannot push the housing market the formal housing market too much down particularly not
122
when we have to compromise on standards
123
and location we have seen disasters happening in mexico
124
when we go too far down with home ownership also we can only push the housing finance market
125
so far down market without incurring large risks for the sector, as we have seen in the United States.
126
So with those two cautions, I would like to close this lecture.
127
Thank you very much.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
