The Central Bank of Ireland has issued a formal warning against Prestige Credit Limited, an unauthorised firm operating a retail credit service without regulatory approval in the jurisdiction. The warning, published under section 53 of the Central Bank (Supervision and Enforcement) Act 2013, alerts consumers to the risks of engaging with the unauthorised operator.
- Unauthorised Firm: Prestige Credit Limited
- Website: https://prestigecredit.eu/
