Consumer credit calculations

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  20 April 2012

Extract

1.1. In 1968 the government of the day set up a committee under Lord Crowther to carry out a wide-ranging review of consumer credit. At that time only a few aspects of this complex field were covered by legislation and there was a minimal degree of control and consumer protection. The Crowther Committee reported in March 1971 with a fairly voluminous report, making extensive recommendations for changes in the law and for greatly increased control of this increasingly important area of consumer affairs.
