Hi *|FNAME|*

Deloitte were in the headlines for a third week running, this time for a record £15M fine. Two partners have also been fined.

The IIA speaks up in favor of increasing regulator’s power and also produced it’s survey results on the COVID effect to IA functions – full story below.

FCA has been under heavy criticism from two quarters this week. Firstly because there have been Zero criminal Money Laundering prosecutions this year and secondly for it’s poor monitoring of the defunct peer to peer investment platform Lendy.

Hope you enjoy this week’s offering…

Many thanks

Paul
