The FCA has announced a new series of monthly Q&A roundtable discussions for mortgage intermediaries and lenders across the UK, with the first stop in Glasgow on 29 October. There is no set agenda for these sessions; topics for discussion are determined by the attendees at each session.
These informal monthly ‘Ask the regulator’ events will conclude in March 2020.
Details of the dates and venues can be found in the registration page of the FCA website.
