FCA regulatory priority reports - insurance, consumer investments & pensions/Government financial inclusion strategy update

In this week's episode, we take a look at the first of the FCA's new regulatory priority updates - which it plans to publish in each sector once a year. The first three to go live are insurance, consumer investments and pensions. We discuss what's in the documents - and whether these new publications will materially reduce the burden for industry compliance teams.In the second half of the show, we discuss the latest developments in the financial inclusion space. It's four months since the Government published its financial inclusion strategy, and over the last few weeks, the Treasury Select Committee has been scrutinising it with a new inquiry. We discuss what's been happening in the hearings and what the final report might mean for the Government's direction of travel in financial inclusion. Email us your questions and suggested topics for discussion to [email protected]
