The National
Association of Commercial Finance Brokers was founded in 1992 in
response to the growing incidence of fraud and is run by an elected
Board of Directors supported by a secretariat. It was formed in
the belief that the establishment of measurable standards of proper
professional practice in sourcing commercial funding was in the
best interests of its customers, and vital to the integrity and
future well-being of the industry.
Published
within an Office of Fair Trading registered Code of Practice, these
standards have been adopted by an increasing number of commercial
finance and legal brokers.
The NACFB
has established complaints and disciplinary procedures designed
to eliminate unacceptable working practices amongst its members.
The Association also exists to safeguard both its Members and their
clients against restrictive practices within the industry and maintains
a confidential register of brokers and lenders suspected of fraud
and malpractice.
In the interests
of members and their clients, the NACFB monitors legislation and
makes representations to Ministers and Members of Parliament as
appropriate. It furthers the principles of good practice by seeking
to work with kindred associations and interest groups, and by providing
education and training for its members and their employees.
