    Consumer Duty

    A Global Shift in Consumer Protection

    Our paper on Consumer Duty provides a comprehensive analysis of consumer protection frameworks across the globe.  It examines regulatory approaches, emerging risks, and best practices shaping fair treatment, transparency, and trust in financial services.  
     
    Drawing on international examples, we offer practical insights for industry leaders seeking to strengthen consumer outcomes in an increasingly complex and digital financial landscape.

    This white paper explores how the UK’s Consumer Duty fits into a wider global movement toward consumer-centric regulation, and what firms must do to meet rising regulatory expectations across jurisdictions.

    The FCA’s Consumer Duty marks a fundamental change in how financial services firms are expected to deliver value to customers. It goes beyond policies and disclosures, demanding evidence of good outcomes, strong governance, and accountability at every level of the organisation.  Beyond the UK, regulators worldwide, such as ASIC in Australia, EBA in Europe and USA's CFPA, are embedding similiar principles.

    • Understand the origins and intent of the FCA’s Consumer Duty and how it builds on years of conduct regulation

    • Explore how international regulators are aligning around customer outcomes, value, and accountability

    • Identify the key questions that regulators expect firms to be able to answer

    • Learn how data governance, MI, and RegTech can help evidence compliance and demonstrate good outcomes
