In April 2016 we published guidance explaining the scope of our functions in relation to the regulations, which require us to monitor and enforce relevant requirements. We updated this guidance in October 2016.
Our Finalised Guidance is relevant to banks, credit reference agencies and finance platforms designated by HM Treasury under the Regulations, small and medium sized businesses seeking finance, and alternative finance providers.
Details of feedback received to our consultation and relevant Handbook changes are contained in Handbook Notice 31[1] and Handbook Notice 37[2].
HM Treasury have published details of parties designated under the Regulations[3].
