The monthly number of approvals for remortgaging loans to individuals in the United Kingdom (UK) increased between 2012 and 2020, before plummeting in the beginning of 2022 due to the coronavirus pandemic. In the following months, the remortgaging activity headed for recovery and in October 2022, there were about 51,000 approvals. Nevertheless, November 2022 experienced another dramatic drop and the number of approvals fell to approximately 33,000. House purchase mortgage approvals followed a similar trend.
