FCA Non-Financial Misconduct Compliance Checklist

From 1 September 2026, the FCA’s Code of Conduct will extend to cover Non-Financial Misconduct (NFM) – meaning bullying, harassment and other forms of poor behaviour will now be treated as regulatory misconduct. This marks a major shift in how culture and conduct are regulated across financial services. Firms must be able to evidence not just policies, but real, measurable cultural change.

This resource outlines what firms must do now to prepare – including an actionable FCA NFM Compliance Plan for boards, risk & compliance teams, and HR functions.
