About Us
FLA - Representing Business and Consumer Finance
FLA (Finance & Leasing Association) is the main representative organisation for the UK consumer credit, motor finance and asset finance sectors, and the largest organisation of its type in Europe.
Our members comprise banks, subsidiaries of banks and building societies, the finance arms of leading retailers and manufacturing companies, and a range of independent firms. The facilities they provide include finance leasing, operating leasing, hire purchase, conditional sale, personal contract purchase plans, personal lease plans, secured and unsecured personal loans, credit cards and store card facilities.
FLA’s mission is to advance the interests of its members and their customers by promoting an open, competitive and fairly regulated market place.
In aiming to fulfil our mission, we campaign for best practice in lending and leasing. Our Lending Code sets out standards of good practice for the consumer finance industry and is intended to reassure any consumer who applies for finance from full members that they are doing business with reputable organisations.
