Housing Market and Financial Stability: What Lessons Have Been Learnt?

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on research and review articles on the nexus among the housing market, financial stability, housing finance, homeownership financialization, mortgage securitization, and other topics in relation to the sustainable development of housing finance markets. In the post-financial tsunami period, there is a growing amount of research examining how the financial systems have taken measures to prevent the risk of spreading from overheated property markets. In the pandemic times, however, many propery markets have seen significant housing price increases. Such changes have drawn attention to both researchers and policy makers, leaving a gap to fill as the pandemic may have reshaped global housing market dynamics and thus posed more challenges to the financial system.

The targeted articles of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following themes:

• Homeownership Financialization and Polarization
• Housing Price and Banking Behavior
• Housing Market and Economic Sustainability
• Mortgage and Asset Securitization
• REIT Performance and Commercial Property
• Residential Housing and Market Behavior
• Risk Management and Prudence Assessment
