Delay could mean even bigger FSCS levies for brokers

The long-awaited review of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is subject to indefinite delay, Insurance Times reports this week.

Brokers were recently told the levy for next years is set to rise to £93.5m. Senior industry officials have slammed the delay.
