FCA - Why and how the FCA regulates consumer credit firms

Course Overview

This course will provide you with a clear understanding of how the Financial Conduct Authority expects your firm to behave and conduct itself when dealing with your customers.

The FCA expects authorised firms to continuously record, maintain and evidence the training of both you and your staff, to ensure that they are up to date with both current and future regulatory changes, and e-Learning is a cost-effective way of doing this.
