Rule change regarding licence categories for mortgage brokers

Posted by H3 on 2014-03-04 09:15:47 GMT

The FCA has now confirmed that mortgage brokers will not require the CCL categories D and E for debt adjusting or debt counselling.  Previously mortgage brokers required these categories for consolidating unsecured debts on a re-mortgage.
