The regulator has made it clear that it will revisit this topic later in the year, with the expectation that firms have evidence on file to substantiate the thoroughness of their suitability reviews.

TCC polled wealth managers on this topic:

38% declared they have all the evidence to distinguish which clients received their review

58% attested to having just some of the evidence

4% reported having none at all

The all-important question is what firms should be doing now to ensure that they have the evidence in place that the FCA will now expect to see. TCC’s regulatory experts advise a twofold approach: a backwards-looking review exercise and a forward-looking plan.
