The latest episode of our mini-series on regulatory enforcement considers the impact of  the UK Financial Conduct Authority’s new rules that seek to prevent greenwashing.

Failing to comply with the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) new anti-greenwashing rules could have serious consequences for financial services firms in the UK. In this episode, we summarise the main changes and tackle the most pressing questions that firms are asking right now, including:
Why have these changes been introduced and how do these add to the FCA’s enforcement arsenal?
What areas do (and don’t) the rules cover?
When will the rules come into force, how will they work in practice, and how might firms feel the impact of these?
How does the FCA’s guidance clarify what is considered “clear, fair and not misleading”? And what difference could the changes make to firms’ marketing communications?
How do the FCA’s changes impact firms’ ongoing compliance work in relation to climate-related financial disclosures?
What further amendments could the FCA introduce to make the rules more effective?

Answering all these questions, and more, are Ashurst colleagues Nathan Willmott, Lorraine Johnson and Anna Varga. To listen to this – and previous episodes in this regulatory enforcement mini-series – search for “Ashurst Legal Outlook” on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
