Aussie Treasurer threat over high mortgage exit fees

The Australian government is threatening to enact new banking legislation to lower mortgage exit fees and make it easier for mortgagees to switch lenders. Australia has the worlds highest exit fees with some lenders charging $7500.

The government and consumer groups are seeking to encourage more competition in the market place.
