Details

These undertakings were given under the monopoly provisions of the Fair Trading Act 1973. They were signed by the UK’s leading banks and require them to:

• ensure that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can open a deposit account without also needing to open a business current account
• publish details of their tariffs
• meet time targets for account switching services
