FCA

The FCA, or Financial Conduct Authority, is a regulatory body in the United Kingdom responsible for overseeing financial markets and firms. Its main goal is to protect consumers, ensure market integrity, and promote competition. The FCA sets rules for financial institutions, like banks and insurance companies, to prevent unfair practices and maintain trust in the financial system. It monitors firms to ensure they operate fairly and transparently, helping to safeguard the interests of consumers and the overall stability of the financial sector.
