11 Dec 2025 Nationwide Building SocietyFCA: £44 million against Nationwide over financial crime controls €50.4m
The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) imposed £44,078,500 (after a 30% discount) because, from October 2016 to July 2021, the building society had no effective systems to keep due diligence and risk assessments for personal customers up to date, and did not identify personal accounts used for business purposes. As a result, one customer received 24 fraudulent Covid furlough payments totalling £27.3 million.
Keep customer profiles continuously up to date – anyone who postpones known weaknesses for years ends up paying for the abuse.
