National Australia Bank interim chief executive Phil Chronican says less than one percent of its loan book is in "negative equity" where an outstanding loan exceeds a property's value.
But Mr Chronican says negative equity won't become a shock as long the unemployment rate remains low.
NAB has posted a 4.3 percent increase in half year profit to $2.7 billion dollars, but has cut its dividend to investors and clawed back $5.5 million in executive bonuses as Royal Commission fallout continues to bite.
Phil Chronican spoke with ABC's Peter Ryan.
