Join this session to discuss key themes in a private forum with 6-10 peers from across the credit industry.
The customer advice market is under increasing scrutiny as the promotion of Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs) continues to outpace other solutions, often driven by financial incentives. Yet, for many customers, alternative options could yield better outcomes.
Naturally, with debt packager fees no longer in play, the rise in the number of IVAs raises an important question: to what extent is this increase driven by external economic pressures, and how much stems from advisory firms intensifying their focus on promoting IVAs internally?
This roundtable will explore the ethical and operational challenges of ensuring customers are directed towards the most appropriate solutions for their financial needs.
Join industry leaders as we examine how to strike the right balance between commercial interests and delivering optimal customer outcomes. We will also consider how fostering a fair and sustainable approach to non-debt and debt advice aligns with consumer duty.
