Host: Stephen Roberts - Lead Director, Head of Investment Firms

In this 13-minute briefing, Stephen unpacks the FCA’s sharpened focus on non-financial misconduct, why it's moved higher up the regulatory agenda and what firms need to do now to stay compliant. He covers the key changes to the Conduct Rules and Fitness & Propriety assessments, including how behaviours like bullying or harassment, even outside the workplace can now have serious regulatory consequences. With changes taking effect from September 2026, Stephen outlines practical steps firms should be taking today, from policy updates to staff training and consultation responses.
