On 19 May, Cadwallader published an article saying that regulators and enforcement agencies in the United Kingdom, while not immune to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, have proved to be relatively adaptable with a continued appetite for enforcement. It says that while there is no cohesive policy regarding enforcement, and delays are likely to plague all ongoing investigations, there does not seem to be a sizeable discontinuance of matters or a change in expectations. The article provides a roundup of current enforcement actions by a number of agencies enforcing against economic crime, and potential areas of future scrutiny – FCA, NCA, HMRC, CPS, SFO and OFSI.
