UK FCA publishes Wider Implications Framework report 2024/25
29 July 2025The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has published its third annual report of the Wider Implications Framework (WIF) for the 2024/25 period, covering 1 April 2024 to 31 March. The report summarises coordinated efforts and actions taken by the FCA, Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS), Financial Services Compensation Scheme, the Money and Pensions Service and the Pensions Regulator to address cross-cutting and systemic issues in financial services. The report highlights joint work conducted on motor finance commission complaints, embedding the consumer duty and implementation of the mandatory reimbursement requirements for authorised push payment fraud. The report also offers insight into how collaboration has been enhanced by updating the WIF's Terms of Reference and the FCA and FOS signing a refreshed Memorandum of Understanding. Alongside the report, the July 2025 Wider Implications Framework Issues Log was also published which provides a detailed overview of the key issues currently under consideration by the FCA and the other regulatory bodies, demonstrating how these matters are being addressed collaboratively.
