They aren’t. Far from it. Now imagine how badly they’d behave without any oversight...
- knownjorbist 5y agoNone of the companies mentioned are even in the same market as the predatory lenders you seem to be confusing them with. I'd wager they want to be subjected to the same oversight as "legitimate"(aka incumbent) players, but as has been shown time and time again, cooperating with the existing regulatory bodies when one is not a part of the club is akin to talking to a brick wall. Why HN wants to carry water for massive incumbent banks and their lackeys in the bureaucracy is beyond me.
