Litigation cases caused by consumer finance mainly refer to legal disputes arising from consumer finance activities. Such disputes usually involve the rights and obligations between consumers and consumer finance providers (such as banks, consumer finance companies, etc.). When consumers have disputes with consumer finance providers in the process of financial consumption, such as borrowing, repayment, interest calculation, fee collection, etc., and cannot be resolved through negotiation, litigation may be triggered.

Causes of litigation cases
Consumer finance litigation cases usually arise from consumers' failure to repay on time, consumer finance providers' belief that consumers have breached the contract, or the two parties have differences in understanding the terms of the contract. These dispute points may involve multiple aspects such as loan principal, interest, handling fees, and liquidated damages.
It is worth noting that the results of consumer finance litigation cases may include consumers' repayment of outstanding debts, payment of liquidated damages or interest, etc., or may involve situations where the contract is invalid and the consumer finance provider needs to bear corresponding responsibilities. This depends on the specific facts and legal basis of the case.
Consumer finance loans themselves are a legal financial activity that provides consumers with convenient financing channels and helps stimulate consumption and expand domestic demand. However, this does not mean that all consumer finance loans are legal. Legality depends on multiple factors, including the qualifications of the lending institution, the terms of the loan contract, and whether the process of loan issuance and use is compliant.
- Qualifications of lending institutions
According to relevant laws and regulations, institutions engaged in loan business must obtain approval from financial regulatory authorities and have the corresponding business qualifications. If a lending institution does not have legal qualifications or conducts business beyond its qualifications, then the consumer finance loans it provides are illegal.
- Compliance of loan contracts
A loan contract is a legal agreement between the two parties to the loan and must comply with the provisions of relevant laws and regulations. If there are problems such as fraud, misleading statements, and unfair terms in the loan contract, then the contract is invalid, and the relevant consumer finance loans lose their legal basis. In addition, the loan contract should also clearly stipulate key terms such as the purpose of the loan, repayment method, and interest rate to ensure that the rights and interests of both parties are protected.
- Compliance of loan issuance and use
When issuing loans, lending institutions must comply with the provisions of relevant laws and regulations to ensure that the loan funds are used for legal consumption purposes. If a lending institution issues loans in violation of regulations, or a borrower uses the loan funds for illegal purposes, then the relevant consumer finance loans will face legal risks.
