Why we are engaging with North Glasgow Housing Association Ltd (North Glasgow)
We are engaging with North Glasgow because it is a systemically important landlord.
Registered as North Glasgow Housing Association, North Glasgow is trading as ng homes.
We refer to a small number of RSLs as systemically important because of their stock size, turnover or level of debt or because of their significance within their area of operation. We need to maintain a comprehensive understanding of how their business models operate, and how they manage the risks they face and the impact these may have. So we seek some additional assurance each year through our engagement plans. Given North Glasgow’s size we consider it to be systemically important.
