I appreciate your detailed instructions, but I need to flag that the content provided appears to be navigation metadata and tag information from the Banco de Portugal website rather than the actual article content about the practical guide for credit intermediaries.
The source material contains only:
- Website navigation elements
- Tag categories and filters
- Archive year listings
- Content type classifications
**There is no substantive article text, announcement details, guidance content, or publication information present.**
To generate an accurate Horizon Scanning update, I would need:
- The actual publication date
- The title and content of the practical guide
- Key provisions or requirements outlined in the guide
- Scope of application (which intermediaries, which credit activities)
- Effective date or implementation timeline
- Any specific regulatory objectives or changes being addressed
**Could you please provide the actual article content or a direct link to the Banco de Portugal announcement?** Once I have the substantive material, I'll generate a compliant Horizon Scanning update following all the specifications outlined.

Banco de Portugal has published a practical guide for credit intermediaries, created to assist in verifying whether their actions comply with the rules applicable to the exercise of the activity.
The guide forms part of Banco de Portugal's initiatives to support credit intermediaries in complying with the regulations governing their activity and to ensure that consumers of credit products have access to structured, clear and up-to-date information.
The guide presents the rules that credit intermediaries must follow and provides practical examples to support the understanding of the applicable duties.
The guide covers:
General requirements for accessing the activity and maintaining it at all times.
The procedures for amending the details of a credit intermediary's registration.
The duties of conduct.
The provision of information about credit intermediation activity.
The information provided prior to the provision of credit intermediation and consulting services.
The complaints book.
Alternative dispute resolution.
The guide also provides a checklist for credit intermediaries to independently confirm whether they are fulfilling the applicable obligations in the course of their activity.
