Responsible lending
NBS is committed to responsible lending and has adopted the guidelines produced by the Financial Services Federation.
The Responsible Lending Guidelines have been developed by the Financial Services Federation with the assistance of a variety of stakeholders including the NZ Federation of Budgeting Services, Consumer NZ, the Families Commission Debt Working Group, the Retirement Commissioner, and officials from the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, and the Ministry of Social Development.
The Guidelines aim to improve consumer protection, raise standards across the consumer credit industry, and deliver better outcomes for borrowers and lenders and set out specific steps that lenders may need to take to assess if a credit contract will be suitable for a consumer.
