EPCs Creating Ripples, Not Waves, for House Prices in England and Wales

In the latest episode of Morningstar DBRS’ “European Securitisation Insights” podcast, host Mudasar Chaudhry, who leads Morningstar DBRS’ European Structured Finance Research team, is joined by Dylan Cissou, Senior Vice President, Lead, Structured Finance Analytics, Quant, and Christian Aufsatz, Managing Director, European Structured Finance Ratings to discuss the potential impact of Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) scores on residential property values in England/Wales and how EPC scores could affect Morningstar DBRS’ structured finance credit analysis in European mortgage-backed securities.

The episode also explores whether there is a quantitative relationship between energy-efficiency improvements and house prices, and includes a discussion of how Morningstar DBRS embarked on this quantitative exercise, which data sets were used, and how the models to test different variables were chosen.
