The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has vowed to be tougher on workplace sexual harassment.<\/p>\n

The City watchdog will set out a crackdown on perpetrators and firms failing to punish them in a consultation paper this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Guidance will be published on ‘serious instances of harassment and bullying’ and explain how ‘non-financial misconduct’ is part of the regulator’s test for financial service workers to be ‘fit and proper’.<\/p>\n

This summer hedge fund tycoon Crispin Odey was accused by 20 women of sexual misconduct. Odey ‘strenuously’ disputes the claims.<\/p>\n

The allegations shone a spotlight on the FCA’s oversight of Odey’s asset management firm, which had been under investigation for two years before claims were made in the media.<\/p>\n

Nikhil Rathi, chief executive of the FCA, told The Telegraph: ‘Financial services workplaces need to be safe places for women.’<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
