Financial Planning Week, the CISI-backed, consumer-focused annual consumer campaign, has been pushed back from October to mid-January.

Major new consumer research by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) has revealed that 23% of people have either cut or halted pension contributions in the past months as they struggle to cope with the cost of living crisis.

Financial product data provider Moneyfacts has rebranded its consumer website as Moneyfactscompare.co.uk to reinforce it as “the completely independent money comparison website.”

The FCA has secured more than £100,000 to repay consumer victims of Mohammed Maricar, who set up a forex ‘trading academy’ that used WhatsApp to provide unauthorised investment advice.
