• Which? insurance super-complaint/FCA consultation on crypto-currency

  In this week's episode, we start with a look at Which?'s super-complaint into the home and travel insurance markets. Fairer Finance supported Which? with its analysis, and shares its concerns. But it's likely to have gone down like a lead balloon at the FCA, where resources are stretched and management are being told to focus on the Treasury's pro-growth, deregulation agenda.In the second half of the show, we look at the FCA's latest consultation into regulation of the crypto currency market. The regulator floats the idea of not applying the Consumer Duty to crypto currency markets. Is this the first signal that it is softening on its commitment to the Duty? Email us your questions and suggested topics for discussion to [email protected]
