The latest figures from the Bureau of Statistics show bank lending to housing investors jumped 4.1 per cent to $11.9 billion in February.

Meanwhile, owner-occupied housing finance climbed 1.5 per cent for the month to 56,562 loans, slightly lower than a Reuters poll which forecast a rise of 2 per cent.

More to come.
