I am interested in credit unions and there were some very interesting contributions on the area. It is a stark visual when the witnesses say the moneylender is going back into the community despite all the different work done being done to try to get people to move towards credit unions. It is clear this is not just about regulation but people's thinking or outlook. Are there any kinds of regulatory changes that may be needed to promote credit unions or should the focus be simply on the psychology element?
