UCB Homeloans shuts down

clock

Nationwide has announced it will close its UCB Homeloans brand in response to the slowing mortgage market.

The closure leaves the building society with just one specialist-lending arm, The Mortgage Works. The brand closed to new lending at the beginning of October and nine sales jobs will be lost as a result. Nationwide says The Mortgage Works has a more advanced technology platform and the society wishes to focus on one specialist brand going forward.
