Why it is so important to understand the needs of the vulnerable

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has recently published guidance on vulnerable clients – to help financial advisers to identify and understand the needs of the vulnerable.

Our very own Director of Risk & Regulation, Claudia Clay, was invited to discuss this important topic in a recent FT Adviser Podcast.
