The OFT can impose requirements on a credit licensee when it has concerns over a licensee's
business practices or compliance with specific consumer protection legislation. Failure to comply
with requirements can lead to further action by the OFT and the imposition of financial penalties of
up to Ä50,000 per breach.
Nigel Cates, Deputy Director of the OFT's Consumer Credit Group, said:
'It is important that all companies, especially those dealing with consumers facing financial
difficulty, comply fully with the standards expected of them. The OFT will use its powers to ensure
that consumers receive a proper standard of customer care and do not suffer detriment as a result of
the behaviour of licensed businesses.'
