Kenneth Underhill, Director of ICSR, will be addressing MGAA members at a lunchtime briefing on Monday 28th January in the Old Library at Lloyd’s. He will be talking about the pricing super-complaint launched by Citizen’s Advice in September 2018, the initial response from the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) and Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the actions MGAs can take to be prepared for any likely next steps in the investigation.

Background

In December 2018, the CMA published its response to the Citizens Advice super-complaint about what has become known as the ‘loyalty penalty’. The FCA has itself already started work on the issue and made clear it will take action, “including price interventions where appropriate.”. There seems little doubt the CMA and FCA both believe the super-complaint warrants more detailed investigation and possible action.

It is a subject Kenneth has considered in more detail in the following articles:
