On 24 October 2019, the Financial Reporting Council (‘FRC’) published the UK Stewardship Code 2020 (the ‘Code’) which takes effect for reporting years beginning on or after 1 January 2020.
It’s not the SRA that protects the public from rogue solicitors and law firms. It is the ethical choices underpinning the millions of decisions made by lawyers every day when no one is looking. Ethics is personal and while the SRA can set standards, guide conduct and provide the right framework and enforce robustly, it cannot watch over everyone all the time. Nor should it.
The new scheme heralds a sharper focus by the SRA on declaring and upholding proper standards in the private lives of those within its regulatory reach.
