2026 brings important changes to UK law and regulation on non-financial misconduct (NFM) and diversity & inclusion (D&I). Updated FCA rules clarify the regulator's expectations around NFM, both in the workplace and beyond, while changes to the Equality Act strengthen the obligations on employers to prevent harassment.
The below visual breaks down the key 2026 dates and highlights what they mean in practice for financial services firms.
