HBOS to launch green mortgage

In the Budget Report, the Chancellor identified the important role lenders have in introducing 'green finance' products to help customers reduce their impact on the environment. HBOS will play a full part in helping to improve the availability of these products.

Peter Jackson, head of products at HBOS, said:

"We welcome the Chancellor's comments about the Government's climate change agenda. Green finance is clearly an area where lenders can play an important part. We will launch a green mortgage next year."
