FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR the first six months of 2013 show that more than 15 per cent of Permanent TSB’s owner-occupied mortgage-holders are in arrears.
This has increased since December 2012 when 13.7 per cent of these loans were in arrears for over 90 days.
Results show there has been a drop in the number of buy-to-let mortgage cases in arrears at 18.8 per cent at the end of June 2013 compared to 21 per cent in December 2012. PTSB said that the bank has made long-term agreements with over 4,000 long-term mortgage-holders this year.
Chief Executive Jeremy Masding said the bank is “gaining good traction” with customers who are in arrears and plans to keep working with them.
There was €121 million in new mortgages approved in the first six months of this year and almost 30,000 new current account customers joined.
Pre-tax losses for the bank have fallen from €587 million in the first half of 2012 to €131 million in the first six months of this year. However the bank said today this figure is “flattered” by some one off exceptional items of €318 million.
Impairment charges came to €430 million and the operating loss for the period, after impairments and before exceptional items was €449 million, compared to €457 million for the same period last year.

@zebadie: he owns tayto. Crisps as well as tayto park
@zebadie: he owns tayto. Crisps as well as tayto park
@zebadie: he owns tayto. Crisps as well as tayto park
@frank griffin: not anymore and not for some time….please be informed before making such things
@zebadie: I say say Tayto, you say Toyota
@zebadie: humm self paying park that doesn’t need visitors to turn a profit
So can we just all agree it should be renamed to Parky McParkface?
Whatever the outcome im sure it will be Hunky Dory….
It should be called Fianna Fáil park. They are taking us all for a ride for many years now.
@James Beattie: Living rent free in your head.
@Daniel Roche: ‘rent free’ you say. The irony of your comment. Rents have gone through the roofs because of neglect and greed of FF and FG.
@James Beattie: What’s that got to do with crisps, James?
@Richie Cosgrove: revert to my initial comment, good lad
@James Beattie: admission fee to be paid in a brown envelope in the car park?
@James Beattie: or sinn fein Park, all the rides will be free.
@John Mulligan: That’s lame. Think about it, though. Do you really think this circus should just continue forever? Cos unless you vote them out, that’s all you get. But ever still so progressively worse. Heads need to roll for decades of incompetence, inaction and greed that continue to push new boundaries every day.
That’s a shame. I’d say they made a packet from it over the years all the same.
sad that something as Irish as tayto isn’t even Irish owned
@Sean Stevenson: it is Irish owned
@michael walsh: No ze Germans own it.
@michael walsh: Intersnack. German owned. Bought out Largo Foods
@James Rock: — The Tayto brand in NI isn’t owned by Intersnack, it’s still out on its own. I don’t know which of the two sponsored the park.
@Sean Stevenson: Neither is Guinness sure…
@Sean Stevenson: Aer Lingus
So can we just all agree it should rename to Parky McParkface?
@Simon Murdoch: So YOU are Parky McParkface

We are excited to rebrand as “Tae Toe Park”.
Pringle Park sounds better……
Last time I was there I parked in the Itchy lot
Hoping they rename it : Morbeg land…
Walkers Park
Spud Park. Ask the Murphys to run it.
I thought the name was a little stale.
Barry’s Tea Park? Kerrygold Park? The Happy Pear Park? ……..
Meanies and Batch Bread Park
Walkers next? ” A Walkers in the park “
have your say
