Financial Conduct Authority,Brexit,EU Rules

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) will replace the EU's disclosure rules for investors in various financial products, aiming for a simpler and more flexible approach. The changes, welcomed by the City of London, are part of the FCA's review of post-Brexit EU laws. The FCA hopes the new regime will provide investors with clearer, more understandable information.

EU disclosure rules that often “confuse or overwhelm” investors in many types of investment products will be replaced under proposals by the UK financial watchdog. The Financial Conduct Authority said on Thursday it would make “significant changes” to the rules on information for investors in various kinds of financial products, such as index tracker funds, closed-end investment funds and contracts for difference.

Christian Pittard, head of investment trusts at City fund manager Abrdn, said the FCA’s consultation “has much riding on it and no time to lose”. He said 22 closed-end funds had left the sector this year and “talk of an existential crisis . . . is not an overstatement”.
