Credit unions invited to enter the Consumer Credit Awards 2020

Now in their fifth year, the Consumer Credit Awards, by Smart Money People, together with headline sponsor Lantern, have returned to help find the UK’s best credit firms and their partners.

In these uncertain times, supportive and responsible financial firms are in high demand, be it household names, newcomers or niche providers, which is being recognised as a customer champion in 2020 will be a true mark of excellence.

Michael Fotis, Founder of Smart Money People said, “The outbreak of the coronavirus will clearly have significant short, medium and long term financial impacts on millions of consumers. The role of the Consumer Credit Awards, particularly this year is to identify, celebrate and promote the very best of these firms.”

Access to affordable and responsible credit is vital to the lives of many consumers, which is why this year there is two dedicated Credit Union categories in the Consumer Credit Awards.

Michael Fotis added: “We really want to showcase the work Credit Unions do to support their members and the communities in which they operate. Credit Unions up and down the UK play an important role in the fabric of local communities by providing access to fair and affordable credit and by encouraging good savings habits. This year the Consumer Credit Awards are particularly keen to shine a light on this work. Ultimately we want more consumers to find out about how credit unions can help them too.”

Voting between now and the Monday 29^th June will help to determine our Finalists. Once Finalists are announced, voting for Finalists continues until the Sunday 12^th July 2020.
