The European Banking Authority (EBA) published today the results of a fact finding exercise on the creditworthiness assessment (CWA) practices of non-bank lenders (NBLs). The exercise is a follow-up to the Consumer Trends Report published in April 2023 and aimed at gaining insight into the extent to which NBLs contribute to over-indebtedness and arrears.
