FCA New Consumer Duty regulations

The FCA New Consumer Duty requires firms to consider the needs, characteristics and objectives of their customers – including those with characteristics of vulnerability – and how they behave, at every stage of the customer journey. As well as acting to deliver good customer outcomes, firms will need to understand and evidence whether those outcomes are being met.

Consumer Principle – firms are required to act to deliver good outcomes for retail customers.

Cross cutting rules:

  • Act in good faith
  • Avoid causing foreseeable harm
  • Enable and support retail customers to pursue their financial objectives

Four outcomes of the FCA Consumer Duty:

  1. Products and services
  2. Price and value
  3. Consumer understanding
  4. Consumer support
