As you may be aware, there is an ongoing Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) enforcement investigation into the collapse of the firms known as Lendy Ltd. It is important to stress that the independence of the FCA\u2019s investigation, and its wider supervision of firms, is vital to its role. The FCA\u2019s credibility, authority and value to consumers would be undermined if it were possible for the Government to intervene in such operational matters.<\/p>
<\/p>
As such, it is not appropriate for the Government to publicly discuss the FCA\u2019s discharging of their supervisory duties in respect of Lendy\u2019s financial promotions. However, I have passed your requests onto the FCA for them to respond to directly.
