The Lending Standards Board (LSB) has announced that the Contingent Reimbursement Model (CRM) Code, which requires signatory payment service providers to detect, prevent and reimburse Authorised Push Payment (APP) fraud, will close on 7 October 2024. It is to be replaced by a statutory framework for the reimbursement of APP fraud victims, which will be overseen by the Payment Systems Regulator (PSR).

The Legal Services Board (LSB) has announced enforcement action against the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) following an independent review that found the regulator failed to respond effectively or efficiently to repeated warnings about the conduct and financial management of SSB Group. SSB Group entered administration in January 2024 with debts exceeding £200m, leaving thousands of clients exposed to substantial legal costs despite assurances of ‘no-win, no-fee’ arrangements.

The Lending Standards Board (LSB) has announced the retirement of its standards of lending practice for personal customers (Personal Standards), effective 31 March 2025. The decision follows a full review in 2024, which found considerable overlap with the Financial Conduct Authority's Consumer Duty introduced in 2023. Despite the retirement, the LSB says it will continue to support firms in delivering better customer outcomes through new guidance and customer outcomes testing. Firms registered with the Personal Standards will be automatically de-registered from 31 March 2025.

The Legal Services Board (LSB) has appointed barrister Elaine Banton as a non-lay member of the Office for Legal Complaints (OLC). Elaine has been appointed to the OLC for a four year term from 1 October 2024 to 30 September 2028.

The Legal Services Board (LSB) has approved an application from CILEx Regulation Limited (CRL) to amend its regulatory framework to allow Chartered Legal Executives (CLEs) to obtain stand-alone authorisation for litigation rights without the need to seek rights of audience concurrently. Acting under delegated authority, Interim Chief Executive, Richard Orpin, granted the application in full on 31 October 2025.
