The unit's accounts filed with Companies House are expected to show that it has booked a provision for hundreds of millions of pounds to comply with the scheme, the report said. The motor finance scheme is a plan to compensate customers who may have been treated unfairly when they took out car loans between 2007 and 2024. Volkswagen did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires. (Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
