Central Bank governor Gabriel Makhlouf is set to announce limited changes to its mortgage loan rules, but no major overhaul is expected despite the inflation crisis.

The mortgage rules were first introduced in early 2015 to ensure no repeat of the credit bubble that led to runaway prices and the disastrous collapse in Irish home prices from the onset of the 2008 banking bust.
