The report recommends:
-
measures to improve the effectiveness and reach of debt advice, overseen by a Debt Advice Steering Group of funders and debt advice charities, chaired by MAS
-
MAS should work on behalf of consumers to strengthen the supply of good, accessible consumer financial information and guidance, and should not seek to compete as a public service provider in an already crowded market
-
how these consumer benefits could be achieved at lower cost and with greater accountability
