The FCA wants to see transformational change in the way financial services firms manage product governance, as part of the new Consumer Duty policy.

With Consumer Duty sitting firmly in the fiduciary accountability box, and the costs of effectively evidencing product lifecycle management increasing, firms that are unable to evidence adequate controls may need to raise regulatory capital allocations in the future.

New Consumer Duty rules are not due until the end of July 2022, and with an implementation deadline of April 2023, firms have only nine months to get compliance right.
