The FCA has reviewed its regulatory action against individuals whose convictions have recently been overturned by the Court of Appeal.As these convictions formed the basis on which the FCA took its action, we have revoked the bans of Colin Bermingham, Philippe Moryoussef, Jonathan Mathew and Christian Bittar and removed the associated Final Notices from FCA channels.The FCA will take no further action against these individuals in relation to this matter.This follows our decision last year to discontinue proceedings against Tom Hayes and revoke Carlo Palombo’s ban after the Supreme Court quashed their criminal convictions.

What is FCA? We protect people by helping them understand some of the most common risks they might come across when using financial services.
We publish warnings about firms that are doing business without our authorisation, and we encourage consumers to report scams, potential harm or bad conduct to us.
Our ScamSmart campaign targets individuals who are most at risk of investment fraud and pension scams. Our InvestSmart campaign also warns newer investors about the risks of investing online.
We want to help consumers protect themselves, so we work with consumer organisations to raise awareness of what we do. These organisations also help inform our approach to regulation.
