About this indicator

Source	Bank of England
Frequency	Mensual
Release	Aproximadamente un mes después del periodo de referencia.
What it is	Captures the number of mortgages approved for house purchase in the United Kingdom over a month. Published by the Bank of England (Money and Credit release), it is a leading indicator of housing market activity and demand.
How it's calculated	The Bank of England counts, from lenders' records, the number of mortgage approvals for house purchase, seasonally adjusted.
Market implications	Because a mortgage is approved before a sale completes, its trend anticipates home sales and the pulse of construction, and is highly sensitive to Bank of England interest rates. A strong reading points to a recovering housing market.
Limitations	It is a volatile figure, highly sensitive to interest rates and seasonal factors and subject to revision; not every approval ends in a completed purchase.
