High quality statistics are essential to accurately size the European consumer credit market, ensure consumer credit providers are able to make informed decisions, and allow policy-makers to assess the potential impacts of regulation in the sector.
On 10 June 2011, Eurofinas organised a workshop to help promote a better understanding of European consumer credit statistics and identify issues that could lead to a lack of data comparability or a misrepresentation of the market size at European level.
The workshop was attended by over 30 experts from nine European countries, including representatives of the European Central Bank, national central banks and statistical institutions, EU institutions and consumer credit practitioners.
