Consumer Duty
Consumer Duty is a new regulatory requirement that is a top priority for the FCA. The deadline to implement these requirements is fast approaching (April and July 2023 for Milestones 2 and 3 respectively), with failure to do so likely resulting in FCA investigation. It is essential to fully implement these requirements and independently validate these to ensure full compliance.
