Financial Services Series – The FCA’s finalised guidance on Non-Financial Misconduct

| KN Talk

In this first episode of our new Financial Services series, Francesca Lopez and James Alleyne break down the FCA’s long‑awaited guidance on non‑financial misconduct – what’s changing, when the new rules take effect, and what firms and regulated individuals need to do now.

 

In under 10 minutes, we cover:

  • What counts as “work‑related” misconduct.
  • How private‑life behaviour may impact fitness and propriety.
  • What managers need to know about their strengthened responsibilities.
  • Practical steps firms should take ahead of 1 September 2026.

 

A clear, accessible overview for HR leaders, compliance teams and anyone working in the FS sector.

 

Watch now to get ahead of the changes.
