UK FCA data room related to motor finance redress consultation

The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has updated its webpage on the proposed motor finance consumer redress scheme consultation to announce the launch of a data room. The facility is intended to support stakeholder engagement during the consultation period, which closes on 4 November. The data room provides controlled access to underlying datasets relevant to the FCA's analysis of consumer loss, particularly in relation to the APR adjustment remedy and high commission arrangements. Access is restricted to individuals with demonstrable expertise in handling large datasets and financial modelling and is granted solely for the purpose of responding meaningfully to the consultation. Entry is conditional upon signing a confidentiality agreement. The FCA clarifies that the data room is not designed to enable firms to calculate their own redress liabilities, as they would need to calculate this from their own data.
