most recent
June 2012
  • Fined £56,000 on 12 June 2012
    On 29 March 2012 the FSA imposed a financial penalty of £56,000 on Accendo Markets Limited. Accendo agreed to settle at an early stage and qualified for a 20% (stage 2) discount under the FSA's executive settlement procedures. Were it not for this discount, the FSA would have imposed a financial penalty of £70,000. Accendo breached Principles 3 and 9 of the FSA's Principles for Businesses through failing to put in place a robust compliance monitoring programme and failing to gather and record sufficient customer information prior to advising on transactions.

The Financial Ombudsman Service only publishes complaint figures for firms with 30 or more new complaints in six months, so there are none here for this firm.
