Understanding regulatory investigations

What prompts a regulatory investigation?

Regulatory investigations take place when there’s been an allegation of a breach of the regulations or a failure to meet the required legal standards.

How will I know if an allegation has been made?

If an allegation is made against you, your regulatory body will usually contact you by letter or telephone. At this point you should seek legal advice.

I’ve been called for interview, what should I do?

Regulators will conduct interviews under caution to gather evidence against the individual or business in question.

If you’ve been called for interview, we strongly recommend instructing our specialist regulatory solicitors. They’ll give you the clear, practical legal advice you need to help you plan ahead and make sure you’re prepared to answer any questions.
