Lloyds Banking Group has set aside a further ยฃ350m to help cover claims where customers were mis-sold payment protection insurance (PPI).
The bank made the decision after Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) set a deadline of August 2019 for any new PPI complaints.
Since the PPI scandal first broke out, Lloyds has paid out a whopping ยฃ17bn in compensation.
The latest ยฃ350m provision will be reflected in the bankโs financial results for the first quarter.

Its PPI provisions fell from ยฃ1bn compared to 2015s figure of ยฃ4bn.
