What’s new? • On 9 July 2020, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) released its final additional guidance on coronavirus (COVID-19) and safeguarding customers’ funds together with a Dear CEO letter. They are relevant to authorised payment firms and e-money firms. • The FCA states that it continues to be concerned about areas of non-compliance, primarily related to the protection of client funds. It sees inadequacies in safeguarding arrangements, frequency of reconciliations and quality of record-keeping. • The Dear CEO letter reminds firms of their compliance obligations, as set out in the Payment Services Regulations 2017 and the Electronic Money Regulations 2011.
