AI-Drafted Finance Complaints Put Accuracy Back in Focus
AI-Drafted Finance Complaints Put Accuracy Back in Focus
04 Nov 2026: Paige Estritori
AFCA’s 2025-26 Annual Review has added a new wrinkle to Australia’s finance complaints landscape: artificial intelligence may help consumers explain a dispute, but poorly checked AI-generated submissions can also make a complaint harder to resolve. For borrowers dealing with personal loans, credit reporting issues or repayment stress, the practical lesson is that accuracy, chronology and evidence still matter more than polished wording. - read more
Broker Review Puts Loan Recommendations Under Fresh Scrutiny
Broker Review Puts Loan Recommendations Under Fresh Scrutiny
28 Oct 2026: Paige Estritori
ASIC’s latest review of mortgage broker conduct has put a spotlight on how loan recommendations are explained, documented and challenged when a cheaper option is available. Although the review focused on home loan brokers, the practical lesson is broader: borrowers should understand not only the advertised rate, but also why a particular loan structure, lender or feature is being presented as suitable. - read more
Higher Cash Rate Raises the Bar for Loan Affordability
Higher Cash Rate Raises the Bar for Loan Affordability
24 Oct 2026: Paige Estritori
The Reserve Bank of Australia's decision on 29 September 2026 to lift the cash rate target by 25 basis points to 4.60 per cent has put loan affordability back in focus for households and small business operators already managing higher everyday costs. While the cash rate does not mechanically set every personal loan or short-term credit price, it influences funding costs, lender risk settings and the way borrowers think about repayment buffers. - read more
Tax Debt Pressure Is Reshaping Small Business Borrowing
Tax Debt Pressure Is Reshaping Small Business Borrowing
16 Sep 2026: Paige Estritori
Small business finance is again in focus as more Australian operators look for ways to manage tax debts, supplier bills and uneven cash flow.

Loan Complaints Put Borrower Treatment Back Under the Microscope
Loan Complaints Put Borrower Treatment Back Under the Microscope
09 Sep 2026: Paige Estritori
Fresh financial complaints data has kept Australia’s lending sector under pressure, with consumer credit issues remaining a major concern for households already dealing with higher everyday costs. While the figures cover a broad range of products, the message for borrowers is clear: the way a lender assesses, explains and manages a loan can matter just as much as the advertised rate. - read more
Why Cash-Flow Data Is Changing Loan Assessments
Why Cash-Flow Data Is Changing Loan Assessments
02 Sep 2026: Paige Estritori
Australian lending is continuing to shift towards faster, data-led assessment, with more providers using bank transaction history, income patterns and real-time affordability checks to understand whether a borrower can manage repayments. For people who have been knocked back by a mainstream bank, this is an important development because it can reduce the emphasis on a single credit score and place more weight on what is happening in the borrower’s finances today. - read more

Hardship Support Moves Higher on the Lending Watchlist
26 Aug 2026: Paige Estritori
Australia’s credit sector is facing renewed pressure to treat financial hardship as a core borrower protection, not a back-office process.

Why Personal Loan Pricing Is Still Uneven for Australians
12 Aug 2026: Paige Estritori
Recent personal loan market updates suggest Australian borrowers are seeing more competition in some parts of the lending market, but the benefits are not being shared evenly.

Why loan affordability matters as rate pressure lingers
04 Aug 2026: Paige Estritori
Recent personal lending updates from Australia’s loan comparison market suggest borrowers are still facing a mixed environment.
