Morgan Stanley estimates that about 43 per cent of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia’s home loans are sold via its network of mortgage brokers. CBA has advised that from now on its home loan customers will be fully informed as to how much brokers receive in commissions. The bank had previously not done so, telling the banking royal commission earlier in 2018 that the size of such commissions cannot be accurately calculated. CBA’s new disclosure standards will cover both upfront and trailing commissions.
