Written by Neil Tofield | Jul 21, 2023 12:23:00 PM

The FCA’s expectations include:

  • treat customers fairly
  • ensure good outcomes
  • demonstrate appropriate compliance

and, in particular, consider what this means in the context of vulnerable customers.

  • Has your firm assessed its culture, strategy and objectives?
  • Is appropriate monitoring of the treatment of vulnerable customers in place?
  • Is the firm focused on achieving good outcomes?
  • Can you demonstrate that responsibilities under the Duty have been met?
