Commerce Commission to investigate
Hanover Finance
The Commerce Commission has today opened
an investigation into Hanover Finance. The investigation is
into whether Hanover Finance has breached the Fair Trading
Act by making misleading representations to prospective
investors and/or the public generally.
The finance
company yesterday announced it was freezing repayments to
16,500 investors owed more than half a billion dollars.
There will be no further comment at this time.
