Fraud is usually defined by domestic regulators as taking place within a 'given industry' and within the broader legal framework, in a 'given country'. Unethical behaviour is closely related and may be forbidden by industry or law firm associations, accounting organisations, or other private professional groups. In the UK, the Fraud Act 2006 and the Theft Act 1968 outline the primary fraud offenses. A similar outline of offenses exists in legislation such as the companies and tax regulations, and the landscape continues to evolve. The UK hosted an Anti-Corruption Summit in 2016 and enacted the Criminal Finances Act in 2017.

Unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts and practices (UDAAPs) can cause significant financial injury to consumers, erode consumer confidence, and undermine the financial marketplace. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, it is unlawful for any provider of consumer financial products or services or a service provider to engage in any unfair, deceptive or abusive act or practice. The Act also provides CFPB with rule-making authority and, with respect to entities within its jurisdiction, enforcement authority to prevent unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices in connection with any transaction with a consumer for a consumer financial product or service, or the offering of a consumer financial product or service.2 In addition, CFPB has supervisory authority for detecting and assessing risks to consumers and to markets for consumer financial products and services.

This module provides an overview of the individual Conduct Rules introduced by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) - the UK's financial services regulators - which initially came into effect progressively between 2016 and 2021. The rules are part of the Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR), a package of measures that represent a fundamental change in the way in which individuals working within the UK financial services sector are held to account by the regulators. These Conduct Rules originally applied only to those firms which are 'dual-regulated' by both the PRA and the FCA. The SMCR was extended in December 2019 to apply to staff in all regulated firms. This module is intended for both staff who are subject to certification and to all other staff who are, apart from the Conduct Rules, not otherwise subject to the SMCR. If you are in a senior manager function (SMF) or a non-executive director (NED), this module does not address all of your Conduct Rule Obligations. You are encouraged to work through the LGCA's Conduct Rules for Senior Manager Professional course instead.
