Acquisition of Loans at Home

Loans at Home (formerly Loansathome4u) through the purchase of 100% of the
share capital.
A detailed conversion of Loans at Home's financial statements, to align
accounting policies, has been completed post-acquisition which reduced Loans
at Home's net assets on acquisition by £5,956,000, principally in respect of
higher impairment provisions due to the impact of a more conservative approach
to recognising impairment.

Appendix - Regulatory overview
During 2016 there were a number of regulatory developments that may have a
bearing on the Group's activities and business operations in the future. Some
of the more pertinent developments are summarised below.
· On 26 May 2016 the FCA responded to the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) recommendations on high-cost, short-term credit (HCSTC) and stated that it would make only minor changes to its suggested rules in this area. The new rules came into force on 1
December 2016.
· On 30 June 2016 new rules on dispute resolution came into force extending the length of time that firms have to handle complaints from "next business day" to the close of business three days after the date of receipt. All complaints must be reported within
three business days.
· On 25 October 2016 the FCA announced a consultation on proposed guidance setting out its proposed interpretation of the law in relation to guarantor loans. This guidance was finalised on 19 January 2017 and the FCA has confirmed that there is no
requirement for a statutory default notice to be issued where payment is requested of (not demanded), or volunteered by a guarantor and continuous payment authority can be used against the guarantor provided notice is given sufficiently in advance (five
working days is suggested) to afford them the opportunity to object/cancel the CPA.
· On 29 November 2016, the FCA issued a call for input to inform further work on high-cost credit, including a review of the HCSTC price cap. Non-Standard Finance plc has submitted its views to the FCA.
· The FCA published its thematic review on early arrears management in unsecured lending in December 2016. Its findings were that many firms are improving the way they deal with customers in early arrears. However, in some areas consumer credit firms still
need to improve their practices.
· Also in December 2016 the FCA launched a consultation on the future funding of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) and has also launched a consultation on a number of specific changes to its scheme rules. One proposal is that the FSCS should
be extended to cover UK-based debt management firms and that this should be funded by a levy on consumer credit firms. According to the FCA and assuming an annual requirement of £45m, this would equate to a levy of 0.22% of annual income on all consumer
credit firms.
· As at 31 March 2016 the FCA had authorised 30,309consumer credit firms and a further 3,544 Interim Permissions were still awaiting to complete the process. In home collected credit, over 386 firms had been authorised as at 31 March 20161.
