Description

The Consumer Credit Protection Reform Package poses widened regulatory challenges for lenders and their intermediaries. Its start marks a significant change to the regulation both of lending and of businesses involved in marketing, making, managing and recovering loans and consumer leases regulated by the National Credit Code. Significantly, ASIC has the role of regulator.

Obligations arise under a web of legislation, industry codes and regulator policy, with severe civil and criminal penalties for non-compliance. Challenges include establishing robust processes, compulsory EDR membership and adapting to regulation of loans for residential property for investment purposes.

National Credit Regulation is the essential subscription publication to inform and assist credit professionals and legal advisers. In its preparation, Thomson Reuters has worked closely with ASIC in incorporating the reference materials, and with Gadens Lawyers who have contributed the commentary written under the leadership of senior partner, Jon Denovan.
