Barclays to buy UK specialist lender Kensington Mortgages
Barclays has agreed to buy UK specialist lender Kensington Mortgages in a £2.3bn deal, as the bank moves to improve its market share of home loans despite the threat of a recession. The UK bank will acquire Kensington’s £1.2bn mortgage book as part of the transaction, according to a statement on Friday. Barclays said the value of the deal was based on it being completed by December and Kensington’s mortgage book comprising £2bn of loans by that point.
