Welcome to our Consumer Duty hub

What is Consumer Duty?

Consumer Duty is a FCA directive that sets higher and clearer standards to protect consumers across financial services and requires firms to put their customers’ needs first.

We see Consumer Duty as another way to drive great customer outcomes and deliver our purpose - to help make retirement more rewarding.
