Download or read book Consumer Credit in Europe written by Maria Lissowska and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-24 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive outlook on the state and role of consumer credits in the European economy and households. It underlines the role of consumerism and digitalisation, in the framework of legislation. It covers two major turns in consumer credit evolution: the 2008 crisis and Covid pandemic. The first had socio-economic sources, the second one was an external event, but provoked important changes in consumer behaviour. Lockdowns deepened the preference for digital financial products. FinTech and BigData operators acquired broader opportunities with the development of distance services. These new financial services need adapted legislation. The recently published project of Consumer Credits Directive covers new means of communication, such as smartphones, and extends rules to new ways of crediting, like crowdfunding. Consumer credit availability changed the behaviour of households. The propensity of poorer households to save faded due to the ease of getting credit. However, financial insecurity during the Coronavirus pandemic made households limit credits and build precautionary savings.
Download or read book Consumer Credit in European Union written by Marijana Dukic Mijatovic and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modalities of consumer's protection at consumer's lending in European Union Member States are provided with a special directive of the European Parliament and the Council (Directive 2008/48/EZ of the consumer credit agreements). Although this area has been regulated in European Union by the directives since 1987 (Directive 87/102/EEC), for the economic crisis it was increasingly coming to the fore that the consumer, as a weaker agreement party, was not protected enough. The directive 2008/48/EC on consumer credit is based on the principle of maximum harmonization and regulates the minimum legislative framework for each of the member states. Republic of Croatia has become a member of the European Union. As the youngest of the Member States, Republic of Croatia was obliged to adjust its national legislation concerning the protection of consumers when signing a credit agreement with acquis communautaire, following is the Republic of Serbia on its European path, therefore Directive 2008/48/EZ about consumer purchase credit is being analyzed in this paper, as well as Serbian and Croatian legal regulations in this field.
Download or read book Consumer Debt and Social Exclusion in Europe written by Hans-W. Micklitz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the dichotomy between the goal of social inclusion and the effect of social exclusion through over-indebtedness since 2008 in Europe. Filling a vital gap in the current literature on the effects of the financial and economic crisis, this volume puts into context academic discussion with the real-life dimension of over-indebtedness. Reports from six European countries provide socio-economic and legal information on over-indebtedness as well as the regulatory and judicial responses to the problems entailed by over-indebtedness. They form the empirical background for five analyses of different aspects of the inclusion-exclusion dichotomy. It becomes clear that in the context of credit expansion, individual over-indebtedness has turned into a social issue, which the current design of the consumer credit and mortgage system in Europe has helped to produce while disregarding the consequential danger of social exclusion.

Download or read book EU Competition Law the Consumer Interest and Data Protection written by Federico Ferretti and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-24 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legitimacy or illegitimacy of information exchanges between competitors remains a topical debate with regard to EU competition law and policy. This book reexamines the issue in the retail financial services sector, focusing on the peculiar problems that it poses for EU market integration, consumer policy and protection and the intersection with fundamental rights. It analyzes and reflects on the relevant case law and guidelines offered by the corresponding European authorities, providing a critique of the current approach and advancing the proposition that information markets themselves need attention, in addition to the markets that they serve. The book also advances new perspectives on cases in which consumers’ personal information is involved in the exchange, recognizing the inevitable interaction between EU competition law, the interests and protection of consumers and personal data protection. It suggests that the status quo under competition law is unsatisfactorily short sighted and that the EU should take a holistic approach (including information markets) to the analysis of competition law, reflecting consumer protection and fundamental rights aspects in the assessment.

Download or read book Consumer Credit in Europe written by Daniela Vandone and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-07-21 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer credit has become a topical issue for researchers, regulators and the banking industry in Europe as a result of increasing market integration, regulatory changes and a growing tendency of households to use debt to finance consumption. This study uses a cross-country approach to look at a broad range of issues related to consumer credit in Europe. Focusing on both the supply and demand sides, it takes into account the structure and performance of financial intermediaries, the socio-demographic and economic profile of households and their risk of over-indebtedness, as well as the regulatory framework, such as the new Consumer Credit Directive. In the light of this analysis, measures for the prevention and management of over-indebtedness are presented. This book is essential for postgraduate students and specialists in financial institutions, for regulators and policy-makers who are in charge of efficiency and stability of financial systems.
