Woke bosses of a building society have axed Robin Hood from their logo because they feel the hero outlaw does not reflect the firm's 'financial diversity'.

Nottingham Building Society replaced the Sherwood Forest hero, who stole from the rich to give to the poor, with a black squiggly line forming an N surrounded by a green background.

Should have used a black yob with hoody!!

More UK households have defaulted on their mortgages in the last quarter, new Bank of England data shows, and the situation is likely to worsen in the run-up to Christmas.

UK lenders have reported that the default rates on secured loans to households increased in the third quarter of this year, and are expected to increase again in the final quarter (October-December).

This is the seventh quarter in a row in which lenders have reported a rise in default rates on secured loans, as this chart shows:

However, default rates for total unsecured lending slightly decreased in the last quarter, helped by a drop in defaults on credit cards.

Karim Haji, global and UK head of financial services at KPMG, says:

“These latest figures suggest that many households are still struggling in the current environment.
Unsecured lending demand, while stable, remained elevated compared to the first quarter of the year. A fall in default rates for unsecured lending is an encouraging sign and reflects the cautious approach to credit being taken by households.

"Lloyds' brand refresh is a powerful symbol of progression"

Reminiscent of SLA changing their name to abrdn in 2021! The SLA Chief Executive Stephen Bird said at the time.....

“Our new brand abrdn builds on our heritage and is modern, dynamic and, most importantly, engaging for all of our client and customer channels. It is a highly-differentiated brand that will create unity across the business, replacing five different brand names that have each been operating independently. Our new name reflects the clarity of focus that the leadership team are bringing to the business as we seek to deliver sustainable growth.”

Absolute balderdash!
