Janice Holmes, Risk & Compliance Manager, Perch Group, said:
“I completed Vulnerability Registration Service’s FCA Consumer Duty Online Vulnerability training in October 2022 and found it informative and engaging. As a debt purchase, collections and credit management firm, effectively identifying and supporting vulnerable customers is a top priority for us. The VRS session helped to set this into the context of our obligations under the new Consumer Duty, which I am leading on the implementation of, and enabled me to put in place frameworks for ensuring that we not only comply with the regulation but offer the best possible customer experience for those in financial difficulty. I’d recommend the training to others in compliance roles.”
