This year, Blauw Research is conducting the ‘Mortgage Provider Image Blueprint’ for the 28th time. This study measures the performance development of all relevant mortgage providers in the Dutch market. It covers both brand performance and actual service as perceived and experienced by independent mortgage advisors.
The comprehensive study aims to provide mortgage providers with insights to determine and monitor their market position, offering tools to enhance their performance.
Additionally, the research results serve as the basis for the Gouden Spreekbuis nominations. Based on their development and scores on key metrics, Blauw nominates three providers each year who have performed best in these areas. This year’s nominees are: ING, Obvion and Rabobank.
Based on the most recent research results from the ‘Mortgage Provider Image Blueprint’, ING, Obvion and Rabobank have achieved the most progress and the highest scores. The key metrics include: awareness, image, preferred position, and service.
