SOCHI, September 29. /TASS/. The Bank of Russia sees signs of excesses on the market of mortgage, which is growing with high rates, the regulator’s Governor Elvira Nabiullina told a forum, adding that the quality of loans is also concerning.

"We see signs of excesses on the mortgage [market], which grew with rates totaling 30% in the past 12 months. Those are high rates. And here we are, of course, concerned about the quality of loans and their influence on the residential property market," she said.
