UK Supreme Court's car finance ruling sparks industry debate
TL;DR Summary
The UK Supreme Court limited the potential compensation payouts for car finance mis-selling, ruling that most claims based on undisclosed commissions are invalid, though some cases with egregious misconduct may still lead to billions in redress. The industry has avoided a massive payout, but some claims remain possible, especially related to unfair agreements and discretionary commission deals, with estimates still reaching up to £13bn.
