The financial regulator in 2010 conducted a thematic review into fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the lawyers on your panel. As a result, banks have subsequently requiredmore information from law firms regarding their processes and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Thousands of law practices have found themselves excluded from lender panels even though they had an exemplary disciplinary record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms found it impossible satisfy the minimum volume of transactions the lenders set.
