New Product Bundles to meet Consumer Duty requirements

Navigating Consumer Duty

Designed to act as a "single point solution" for dealers

Consumer duty white paper

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has introduced new rules for dealers and lenders to follow aimed at delivering good outcomes for retail customers. These rules, called Consumer Duty, come into force in July 2023.

The new Duty "sets higher and clearer standards of consumer protection across financial services, and requires firms to put their customers’ needs first." All financial service providers that are regulated by the FCA and offer products or services to consumers must follow these rules.

We know that meeting and keeping up with new financial regulations can be quite a challenge. Consumer Duty can feel like a bit of a minefield and balancing outstanding customer experiences with compliance can sometimes feel like walking a tightrope.

That's exactly why we've created a new product range designed to act as a “single point solution” for dealers in meeting their Consumer Duty responsibilities.

Our view of Consumer Duty is that it is not just a question of meeting compliance but represents a genuine growth opportunity for dealers. If you are now working harder and more effectively to place customer needs first, as the FCA specifies, that should also result in better outcomes for your business. And we believe our new product range reflects this.
