Law firms have high levels of concern over the legal liability and regulatory penalties posed by lighter regulation under the government’s Leeds Reforms, according to a survey by compliance training provider Skillcast.
When the reforms were announced earlier this year, the government said the changes will ‘tear down the barriers to attracting investment in the finance sector by reintroducing informed risk-taking into the system, cutting unnecessary red tape, driving more finance into public markets and actively helping international companies to set up in the UK’.
Today’s Wills & Probate is a London‑based online news publication launched in 2014 that serves will‑writers, probate practitioners and estate planners across England and Wales. They provide daily news, in‑depth analysis, best‑practice guidance and editorial for the wills, probate, tax and trusts sector, backed by strong relationships with regulators, industry bodies and service‑providers.
