These costs put pressure on firms' finances and are passed on to consumers.nOur approachnCommit to joint action with the regulators and industry to identify and address the root causes of mis-selling and other conduct issues which drive failure and compensation costs.nEnsure consumers are alerted more quickly to vulnerabilities and risks as they emerge.nWork with our partners to improve co-ordination across government, industry and regulators, ensuring insights and intelligence are generated and acted on.nFeed back lessons learnt as a creditor and from recoveries activity, including working with the insolvency and insurance markets.nDevelop FSCS' own capability to provide actionable intelligence.
