Before the recession most banks displayed an attitude to risk which is different than today. The Financial Services Authority in 2010 conducted a thematic review into mortgage fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the solicitors on your panel. Accordingly, lenders have since soughtmore information from law firms about their processes and the staff employed by them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum number of transactions. Many law practices have been removed from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy track record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to meet the minimum amount of transactions the lenders required.
