19 Jun 2026 CACEIS Bank (UK Branch)FCA: public censure for CACEIS UK over deficient checks on a custody client United KingdomCustomer due diligence Reprimand or warning

The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) issued a public censure because the London branch opened and operated accounts for the wealth manager WealthTek, although its own register searches showed that it lacked permissions to hold client assets, and overlooked a restriction noted in the register; 16 monitoring alerts were not worked through over two years, and more than £314 million flowed through the accounts. In view of cooperation and a voluntary payment of £31.7 million to WealthTek clients, the FCA refrained from imposing a fine (otherwise £23.1 million after discount).

What organisations can take from it

Anyone who notices a discrepancy in the register must clarify and document it before accounts are activated.
