You obviously know nothing about the FCA, how many courses have you done, I had to do so many and also pass (if not I was out of a job) these useless courses I have lost count. If you have had to deal with the regulations you may have some idea what you are talking about. They are a bunch of jobsworthy box tickers, this is a view taken by many in the industry, they enforce very little, hardly anyone gets prosecuted. Take a look at the USA SEC and FINRA which is far more effective especially with insider dealing. OFAC is far more effective for money laundering, which was the system used at the Bank I worked for and the system where I also had dealing. Why do think so many companies, individuals and even charities are be de-banked, not because they laundered money but because a transaction trigged some strange rule and it costs too much money to do the investigations, spend some time on research.

In my personal life I have had to move from a broker (pulling out of UK due to ridiculous regulations) and had to move 2 accounts of companies I own from an asset manger because of change of regulations which cost me a lot of money and a lot of time. I had a good relationship with the asset manager for many years (still have), they mostly handled my accounts on a discretionary basis but with some intervention from myself to maximise tax efficacy. Change of regs and they cannot handle my accounts in a way that worked well for both of us for years. They were very good and allowed me to leave without exit charges as they saw how unfair these change of rules are. This asset manager used to deal with clients who had a few hundred thousand pounds, but after speaking with them they are not now interested in any clients with less than £2 million because of the increase in FCA regulations and therefore costs. Another great win for the FCA small investors now blocked from good quality investment services because of the FCA.

'ESG is there to try to ensure that companies are not behaving exploitatively' - Utter crap - ESG is there to appease the woke tree-huggers who make all the bloody noise. It's got absolutely zero to do with exploitation or corruption - those problems were there long, long before ESG became de-rigueur and it's still there now - no change. Furthermore, it will likely still be there when ESG has run it's course and the next flavour of the month comes along! LoL

Hilarious Terry. You are admitting you are a goon then. Cynical, not wanting to comply with the regulations. Money laundering is a problem and the worst goons get caught - there are stories every other week in the FT about court cases on the subject. Insider dealing, also a big problem for us small investors. We need Aim to get cleaned up. We need lifestyle companies off the stock exchange. We need auditors to do their job. That's what will attract more investors. You are advocating for a race to the bottom where only the banks and the brokers win. That's what puts people off investing. ESG is there to try to ensure that companies are not behaving exploitatively. The fact that you see it as a tick box exercise is very telling. Gross.

In the meantime ABDX are well placed for a prentative approach to healthcare that a Labour government wants. Bring it on.
