Paradigm launches 2026 market prediction insight videos

Richard Howes
8 January 2026The interviews feature Richard Howes, director of mortgages at Paradigm, speaking with Francesco Di Pietro, head of intermediary mortgages at Newcastle Building Society, Rachael Hunnisett, director of mortgage distribution at April Mortgages, and Nadine Edwards, head of NatWest intermediary distribution.
Each video includes the lenders’ views on how the intermediary mortgage market could change in the first quarter of 2026, as well as what trends and challenges are expected to impact the industry this year.
Richard Howes, director of mortgages at Paradigm Mortgage Services, said: “As 2026 begins and we start to progress through this first quarter, it’s important to review what are likely to be the key themes and emerging opportunities for advisers."
“Which is why we find so much value in speaking to senior industry figures at lenders in order to get their views on how the market is likely to develop and what that means for member firms."
“These short Special Edition Insight videos do just that, with the aim being to look forward rather than looking back.”
Howes added: “I hope they will assist our member firms in helping their existing and new clients secure the solutions they need, plus potentially revealing the products, services and sectors which they could benefit from as the year progresses."
“These videos form part of our ongoing commitment to supporting advisers and our members throughout the year, and we will continue to add further Insight and CPD content to ensure they remain fully up to date and well-prepared for the market ahead.”
