Lloyds Banking Group has set aside a further £350m 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 £17bn in compensation.
The latest £350m provision will be reflected in the bank’s financial results for the first quarter.
PPI claims have been falling, in Lloyd’s full-year results for 2016 it more than doubled its pre-tax profits to £4.2bn from £1.6bn.
Its PPI provisions fell from £1bn compared to 2015s figure of £4bn.
