Equifax may soon face the wrath of UK politicians after the chairman of the country's House of Commons Treasury Committee demanded answers from the firm over its handling of its recent data breach.

Nicky Morgan MP has written to the chief executive of Equifax Limited asking for further details about the scale of the breach, and what compensation it will provide. Morgan has also written to Andrew Bailey, chief executive of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), for his assessment of Equifax's response to the incident, and whether the finance watchdog is considering further action. Equifax's UK business is authorised by the FCA.
