ERC Standards 2.0 launch webinar

29 May 2025, 10am

When:

29 May 2025, 10am

The Equity Release Council is proud to announce the launch of Standards 2.0. This updated framework introduces a new sixth Standard, as well as its first Consumer Charter.

The Consumer Charter sets out clear expectations for anyone engaging with Council members, ensuring that consumers receive personalised, comprehensive, and transparent support to help them make informed decisions based on their individual needs.

The session will be led by Michelle Highman (Chair of the Standards Committee and Independent Non-Executive Director) and Kelly Melville-Kelly (Director of Risk, Policy and Compliance at the Council). 

Attendees will gain insights into the rationale behind the refreshed, more accessible Standards and have the opportunity to ask questions about how these changes apply in practice.

There will also be some high-level insights from the recent mystery shopping exercise that the Council undertook to better understand the type of support that members need as they help customers to make sustainable choices around property wealth.
