Financial Abuse – Facts and Support

BCDAF

1 in 5 adults in the UK have experienced financial abuse from a current or former partner

Domestic Abuse may take many forms and financial abuse is just one of them.  A partner may restrict, exploit and sabotage their partners access to money in many different ways. 

Many banks and building societies and some credit unions, have adopted the Financial Abuse Code of Practice developed by UK Finance in 2018.  If you are experiencing financial abuse you can speak safely and confidentially to your bank, building society or credit union for help to protect you and your money.
