question text	To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of the progress made by the banking sector on meeting the needs of vulnerable consumers.
tabling member constituency	Belfast South

uin	131733
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/03/2018 answer text <p>The Government believes it is vitally important that the banking sector meets the needs of vulnerable consumers. The nine largest personal current account providers in the UK are legally required to offer fee-free basic bank accounts to customers who do not have a bank account or who are ineligible for a bank’s standard current account. The Treasury’s December 2017 publication shows that in total there are nearly 8 million basic bank accounts open in the UK, and that just over 900,000 new accounts were opened between July 2016 and June 2017.</p><p> </p><p>The Government has also given the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the independent conduct regulator for the financial services sector, a statutory objective to protect consumers. The FCA continually assesses whether the banks they regulate are meeting the rules regarding the needs of vulnerable consumers.</p><p> </p><p>UK banks’ treatment of their customers is governed by the FCA in its Principles for Businesses, as well as specific requirements in its Handbook. The FCA's Principles require firms to conduct their business with due skill, care and diligence, and to pay due regard to the interests of its customers and treat them fairly.</p><p> </p><p>Understanding vulnerability is central to how the FCA makes decisions. At the end of last year, the FCA published its ‘Approach to Consumers’ Paper, which details how the FCA measures the effects of its actions on consumers, particularly with respect to access and vulnerability. This was a consultation and the FCA plans to publish its Final Approach to Consumers Paper later this year.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 13/03/2018 13:50:27 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen
