Regulatory update - December 2021

Welcome to the December edition of the Regulatory update, which pulls together recent developments from across the UK’s regulators to help you navigate the regulatory maze.

Following a month where the world’s leaders came together in Glasgow to discuss forging a global response to the climate emergency, the regulators have been making strides too.

The Environment Agency has published a report on how regulation is helping protect against climate change, and the Joint Forum on Actuarial Regulation formed a taskforce to encourage greater actuarial engagement on climate change. While in other news, a new regulator for construction products has been introduced, and the much-anticipated ‘Natasha’s Law’ regarding food allegen labelling has come into force. I hope you enjoy reading this latest update.
