MBNA Loan Insurance
It has been hard to avoid news regarding the loan protection insurance scandal in recent months. In May 2011, the High Court reviewed new Financial Services Authority (FSA) guidelines regarding the sale of the cover.
The British Banking Association (BBA) had requested the review as many lenders were unhappy with the new guidelines which they felt would force them to examine old PPI sales against new standards – potentially costing them millions. The FSA disagreed with the BBA’s assertion arguing that the guidelines were not new rules, but simply a clarification of existing guidelines. The High Court agreed with the FSA.
Since the High Court returned its findings, many major banks have announced the allocation of significant funds to deal with claims and it is hoped that this will prove to be a turning point in the PPI battle.
