Abstract
This paper investigates the relationship between real estate market transparency (RET) and default on mortgages (DOM). Using data from 46 countries for the period of 2006–2016, we find evidence that there is a negative and significant relationship between RET and DOM. This result is robust with the inclusion of control variables and different estimation methods including panel fixed effects and generalized method of moments (GMM). We also find that the association between RET and DOM is more apparent in emerging economies than high-income countries.
