The Consumer Duty came into effect on 31 July 2023. To help ensure you’re fulfilling its requirements, this page contains the relevant material you may need.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any further questions.
The Consumer Duty is a regulatory standard set by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) under which firms must act to deliver good outcomes for retail customers. Building on existing standards, it provides better protection for consumers in the retail financial services market. It puts customers’ needs first and sets higher expectations for the standard of care they receive from providers.
It achieves this by:
All products and services should be designed to meet the needs, characteristics and objectives of a target group of customers and distributed appropriately.
Firms should assess their products and services in the round to ensure there is a reasonable relationship between the price paid for a product and service, and the overall benefit a consumer receives from it.
A firm’s communication should support and enable consumers to make informed decisions about financial products and services. Consumers should be given the information they need, at the right time, and presented in a way they can understand.
Firms should provide a level of support that meets consumers’ needs throughout their relationship with the firm. A firm’s customer service should enable consumers to realise the benefits of the products and services they buy and ensure they are supported when they want to pursue their financial objectives.
The Consumer Duty is likely to increase pressure on firms that run a centralised investment proposition (CIP) or a centralised retirement proposition (CRP). This is because firms will likely need to provide evidence on an ongoing basis of how their CIP or CRP segments clients to meet their individual needs. One way to reduce this burden is to outsource the responsibility for creating and managing investment portfolios to a Discretionary Fund Manager.
Firms currently following PROD 3 guidelines may choose whether to follow the rules in PROD or the Consumer Duty products and services outcome. However, failing to comply with PROD would also be taken as failing to comply with the Consumer Duty.
