Both statistically and anecdotally, the number of FCA Enforcement Investigations has been reducing. However, the FCA has stated that pre-enforcement and supervisory instruments will be used more widely. Section 166 or skilled persons reviews, which are becoming more common and typically cost more than £500k, are at the forefront of this. But what is a section 166 / skilled persons review, and are related costs covered under insurance?

We are incredibly excited to share that our Health & Care team were named the Top Corporate Fundraiser for The Care Workers' Charity at this year's #NationalCareAwards. Howden Insurance Brokers Limited is committed to making a positive impact in the communities in which we work and are proud of the support we provide to The Care Workers' Charity, ensuring that more care workers in need receive support. This year we raised over £20,000 for the charities working within this vital sector. Managing Director of Howden Health & Care, Mark Westgarth said: “We see first-hand the impact care workers have, helping the most vulnerable in our society and often doing so with limited financial reward for themselves. Without their dedication and hard work many of our friends & family who rely on them would find life very difficult. It is why we are delighted to do what we can to help support them where we can. Some of the fundraising activities were physically challenging but our team knew the pain was only temporary & the effects on those who would ultimately benefit would be long term, which pushed us forward. We are committed to doing as much as we can in the future.”

In recent years, we've seen an increase in consolidation as asset managers seek profitability. But, from an insurance perspective, acquisitions and liquidations present a critical juncture, which can potentially leave directors exposed to unintentionally uninsured risks if they don't have a run-off policy in place.
