Who is paying the price in the student finance debate? | Commercial Awareness Compass #65
Student loans, the seemingly innocuous funding for England’s university students, are a source of constant debate in social policy and finance. For many graduates the system feels like a lifelong burden while for the government it remains a complex balancing act of public spending. We have been joined by Dentons to explore whether these arrangements are unfair or simply misunderstood. How does the unique write off feature differ from commercial debt? Why can a government change loan terms without asking? And why do universities rely on international students to stay afloat?
