Emirati banks have formally asked the UAE Central Bank to cap mortgages at 75 percent of property value for expats and at 80 percent for UAE nationals.

The Emirati Banks Association (EBA) also recommended limiting the total loan value to eight years’ salary for UAE nationals and up to seven years’ salary for expats.
.
The recommendations are contained in the EBA’s response to a notice issued by the Central Bank on December 30 to cap mortgage loan-to-value (LTV) ratios in a bid to prevent overheating the property market and to reduce loan defaults.

The Central Bank has suggested capping LTVs at 50 percent for expats and 60 percent for nationals.
