We are pleased to announce that our spring conference, titled Catalyst, will take place on 28 April 2026. Registration will open shortly but we ask members to save the date in the meantime.

Catalyst will focus on the growing use of artificial intelligence in financial services, alongside key issues such as data security and emerging technologies. These topics will be of critical importance to firms operating across the financial services sector, particularly as technological innovation continues to accelerate and reshape business models and regulatory expectations.

Members that attended our recent events will have heard us talk about the trending issues and concerns that we are seeing from claims management firms. We have put together a guidance paper for members which highlights these issues and provides further insights into the work we have been doing to address these, including our discussions with regulators.

The guidance paper presents proposals available member firms to counter the trending issues we are seeing, following conversations with the FCA, SRA, ICO and the FOS.

The session will cover anticipated developments in the regulation of Buy Now, Pay Later products, the next phases of the Consumer Credit Act review, and ongoing work to improve access to credit. We will also explore the Credit Information project and forthcoming steps in the motor finance sector.

Attendees will hear insights into the FCA’s evolving strategy and areas of supervisory focus, including the continued implementation of the Consumer Duty and enhancements to product sales data reporting. In addition, we will discuss emerging developments at the FOS and their potential implications for firms.

Over the last three months, we have been collecting details of legislation, regulatory updates and other announcements we think may be of interest to you. This member exclusive publication is designed to provide an essential ‘easy read’.

As we head toward the end of 2025, it is time to reflect and publish our fourth edition of Year in Review.

This is our opportunity to bring together all the elements of CCTA work and explain how we speak on behalf of members, share the insights from discussions and build a strong network.
