The FCA Consumer Duty Summit A guide to FCA regulated firms’ obligations to customers
Event Details
City & Financial Global’s “FCA Consumer Duty Virtual Summit”, 18th November, will be held in response to the FCA's proposal to introduce a new consumer duty for regulated firms that set higher expectations for the standard of care that firms provide to consumers.
For many firms, this will require a significant shift in culture and behaviour, with a consistent focus on consumer outcomes, and putting customers in a position where they can act and make decisions in their own interests.
The summit will bring together regulators and financial services professionals to share insights into how to ensure financial institutions can deliver fair outcomes for consumers while avoiding costly litigation or enforcement action.
Topics that will be covered by our expert panel include:
• The FCA's recent guidance on dealing with vulnerable customers
• How firms can promote financial inclusion
• Ensuring financial promotions to retail customers are clear and unambiguous
• The role of the Financial Ombudsman Service in delivering a fair outcome for consumers
• Handling customer complaints
• Rights of redress under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme
• The new proposed right to bring a private action for breach of the duty
• Enforcement action by the FCA for breach of the duty
