Canadian Mortgage Market
Default Insurance
• Under the Bank Act, banks can only advance uninsured mortgages up to an LTV ratio of 80%
Borrowers have to purchase default insurance if the mortgage has an LTV > 80%
Insurance covers the entire outstanding principal amount, up to 12 months accrued interest
and, subject to certain caps, any out-of-pocket costs incurred by the lender (e.g. foreclosure
expenses, legal fees, maintenance costs, property insurance, etc.)
Mortgage default insurance is provided by CMHC and private mortgage insurers (Genworth,
Canada Guaranty)
Favourable Legal
Environment
In most provinces, lenders have robust legal recourse to recoup losses (e.g. garnishing
wages)
Taxation
Mortgage interest is generally not tax deductible, which results in an incentive for
mortgagors to limit their amount of mortgage debt
