Financial markets and consumer protection are overseen by the FCA in the United Kingdom. Compliance with FCA regulations refers to businesses and individuals adhering to the regulations and guidelines set forth by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Among the financial institutions covered by these regulations are banking, insurance, investment services, and consumer credit companies.
Fines, trading bans, and criminal charges may be imposed on firms and individuals who fail to comply with FCA regulations. To ensure FCA compliance, businesses and individuals must stay up-to-date with FCA regulations, maintain proper records, and implement appropriate systems and controls.
