  • the Annual Public Meeting itself – in particular how the FCA publicised the meeting and allowed time for questions;
  • the FCA’s investigation into Blackmore Bonds;
  • consumer credit – particularly the progress of various reviews;
  • the Consumer Duty, and how the FCA will judge whether firms are providing better outcomes for customers;
  • consumer protection;
  • crypto regulation including why the FCA changed its previous view on offering crypto ETNs to retail investors;
  • the interplay between the FCA and the FOS;
  • mortgage prisoners; and
  • many questions about motor finance commission.
