Treating Customers Fairly - Embedding FCA Principles Across Your Firm
Introduction
The FSA launched its Treating Customers Fairly (‘TCF’) initiative back in 2007. Since then, it has evolved and is the bedrock of the FCA’s supervisory principles.
Understanding the basics of TCF is essential for every firm authorised and supervised by the FCA.
The ethos of TCF, and how it relates to a firm, is an essential part of ensuring a business is healthy, the culture of a firm is on the right track, and its clients are being treated fairly.
This new webinar will cover everything a firm needs to know about Treating Customers Fairly, including the hot topic of vulnerability.
Everyone in a financial advice firm will benefit from this session as we delve into the details of Treating Customers Fairly, paying close attention to the current publications and articles from the FCA.
Understanding the details of Treating Customers Fairly will provide your firm with a robust basis on which to evidence that it’s not only adhering to the rules but also working to improve the effectiveness of its business.
Learning about Treating Customers Fairly will help your firm’s advisers develop, as well as further protect customers.
Consumer Duty is focusing the industry further into evidencing that the regulated firm is doing all they can to act in the clients’ best interest - illustrating clear monitoring, analysis and evaluation of your firm’s processes is a key tool in the Duty.
