Driving growth, rebalancing risk, and powering innovation: Inside the FCA’s new strategy - S6 Bonus episode

In this special bonus episode, host Tessa Norman is joined by PwC Partner Sajedah Karim and Director Conor MacManus to unpack the FCA’s newly released five-year strategy — and what it means for financial services firms.

Our expert guests explore how the FCA aims to open up the debate around rebalancing risk, and drive a greater focus on enabling economic growth and embracing emerging technologies. The conversation dives into the regulator’s shift towards a more outcomes-focused approach, and how the FCA is taking this forward through its feedback statement on reviewing rules in light of the Consumer Duty.

Our guests also share practical insights on what this evolving regulatory environment means for firms — from shaping business models and strategy, to rethinking compliance in a more dynamic, tech-forward landscape.
