Disagreeing with a ruling handed down by a regional court, Poland’s consumer protection Authority again presents its viewpoint material to a case against mBank. Poland’s Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) maintains that contract clauses that too vaguely indicate the grounds for changing interest rates on loans are prohibited.
Poland’s amended act on competition and consumer protection gave UOKiK the ability to present the court with standpoint material to a case. Such opinions allow the Authority to share its knowledge and assist the courts in dispute settlement.
