Titungal
In purchasing Notes, investors assume the risk that the Issuer and the Guarantors may become insolvent or
D.2
Key risks regarding
otherwise be unable to make all payments due in respect of the Notes. There are a wide range of factors
the Issuer and the
which individually or together could result in the Issuer and the Guarantors becoming unable to make all
Guarantors
payments due in respect of the Notes. The Issuer and the Guarantors have identified a number of factors
which individually or together could materially adversely affect their businesses and ability to make payments
due under the Notes. These factors include:
The business of the Issuer and its subsidiaries (the Group) is carried out through the operating subsidiaries of
the Issuer and depends upon receipt of funds from those subsidiaries to fund payments of principal and
interest on the Notes. Noteholders will have a direct claim against the Issuer and the Guarantors based on the
Notes or, as applicable, the Guarantee but will not have a direct claim against the Issuer's other operating
subsidiaries which are not themselves Guarantors, for example Vanquis Bank.
Macro-economic conditions: The Group's businesses are subject to inherent risks arising from general and
sector-specific economic conditions. As a lending business operating predominantly in the UK and the
Republic of Ireland, the Group's customers could be affected by a deterioration in the general macro or
sector-specific economic conditions in the UK or the Republic of Ireland and hence this could impact on the
Group's earnings, profitability, credit rating, borrowing costs and ability to fund itself.
Credit risk: The Group may suffer unexpected losses in the event of customer defaults as a result of a
customer failing to honour repayments as they fall due. Factors that affect customers' ability to make loan
repayments, such as rising unemployment and under-employment, increases in interest rates, inflationary
pressures on household bills and austerity measures, could lead to higher defaults and higher impairment
charges. In addition, as a secured car finance provider, Moneybarn's results could be impacted if there is a
deterioration in the price of used cars.
Regulatory risk: The Group's business may be adversely affected if members of the Group breach existing
regulations or if there is a future change in the regulations applicable to the markets within which the Group
operates or the businesses fail to obtain full authorisation from the Financial Conduct Authority (the FCA).
The Group's operations are subject to various forms of regulation and guidance originating from Europe, the
UK and the Republic of Ireland. Consumer credit regulation was transferred from the Office of Fair Trading
to the FCA on 1 April 2014. CCD and Moneybarn have obtained interim permissions under the new regime
and will submit their application for full authorisation during 2015. Furthermore, the regulations and guidance
are subject to potential modifications on an ongoing basis.
Regulatory prudential risk: The Group is subject to capital and liquidity adequacy requirements imposed by
the Prudential Regulation Authority (the PRA) under CRD IV. The Group may be unable to meet CRD IV
requirements that the PRA has yet to fully finalise. The Group's ability to do business could be constrained if
it fails to maintain sufficient levels of capital or liquidity.
Reputational risk: An event or circumstance could adversely impact on the Group's reputation. Operating as it

does in the non-standard credit market leads to greater scrutiny of the Group's activities and any adverse
publicity from the activities of legislators, pressure groups and the media could potentially have a detrimental
impact on the Group's lending and collections activities.
Business risk: Changes to the competitive landscape or other factors affecting the Group's ability to execute
its strategy could result in a deterioration in the Group's performance.
Liquidity risk: Whilst the Group maintains headroom on its committed debt facilities and has access to retail
deposit funding through Vanquis Bank, there remains a risk that the Group may have insufficient liquid
resources available to fulfil its operational plans and/or to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
Operational risk: The Group could be adversely affected by loss from inadequate or failed internal processes
and systems. Such an event could arise due to a failure in its IT systems, a health and safety event affecting its
employees or agents, a fraud or a failure to recruit or retain management.
D.3 Key risks regarding The key risks associated with the Notes and the market generally are:
the Notes ۰
if the Issuer has the right to redeem any Notes at its option, this may limit the market value of the Notes
concerned and an investor may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds to achieve a similar
effective return;
unlike a bank deposit, the Notes are not protected by the FSCS. As a result, the FSCS will not pay
٠
compensation to an investor in the Notes upon the failure of the Issuer and/or the Guarantors. If the
Issuer and/or the Guarantors go out of business or become insolvent, Noteholders may lose all or part of
their investment in the Notes;
٠
investment in Fixed Rate Notes involves the risk that subsequent changes in market interest rates may
adversely affect the value of the Fixed Rate Notes in which case the interest paid under Fixed Rate Notes
could be less than the then applicable market interest rate;
٠
the conditions of the Notes contain provisions for calling meetings of Noteholders to consider matters
affecting their interests generally. These provisions permit defined majorities to bind all Noteholders
including Noteholders who did not attend and vote at the relevant meeting and Noteholders who voted in
a manner contrary to the majority;
the fact that the holder may not receive payment of the full amounts due in respect of the Notes as a
٠
result of amounts being withheld by the Issuer or the Guarantors in order to comply with applicable law;
$\bullet$
investors who hold less than the minimum specific denomination may be unable to sell their Notes and
may be adversely affected if definitive Notes are subsequently required to be issued;
Notes may have no established trading market when issued, and one may never develop, or may be
illiquid. In such cases, investors may not be able to sell their Notes easily or at favourable prices;
the fact that investors are exposed to the risk of changes in law or regulation affecting the value of Notes
٠
held by them;
the fact that fees, charges, costs and expenses may be incurred by investors in connection with investing
۰
and trading in the Notes; and
investors in Crest Depository Interests (CDIs) will have an interest in a separate legal instrument and
٠
will not be the legal owners of the Notes in respect of which the CDIs are issued. Accordingly, rights
under the Underlying Notes cannot be enforced by holders of CDIs except indirectly through the
intermediary depositaries and custodians.
