In addition to restricting the structure of firm, some banks for instance HSBC made a decision to reduce the size of their panel they allow to act for them.

Increases in mortgage fraud was the main trigger for the reduction of solicitor panels a few years ago even though there are conflicting points of view concerning whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Data from HMLR indicates that thousands of conveyancing organisations only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those advocating conveyancing panel pruning question why conveyancing firms should have claim to remain on a bank panel when it is apparent that property law is not their primary expertise?
