The Department of Finance is considering proposals to cap the cost of borrowing from licensed moneylenders. The Department wants to get views on whether the introduction of a cap on interest rates would have a negative effect on the regulated supply of credit and might lead to an increase in illegal moneylending or to financial exclusion for consumers of these regulated firms.
