FCA Chair Accused of Breaching Whistleblower Rules, FT Says.

The chair of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has been accused of violating the FCA's policy on protecting the confidentiality of internal whistleblowers. Ashley Alder allegedly forwarded unredacted correspondence from a whistleblower to other individuals within the FCA without obtaining consent. The whistleblower, who was dismissed from the FCA for alleged misconduct, raised concerns about opaque hiring practices, leading to an internal review. The FCA has not commented on the matter.
