The UK Litigation and Investigations Group at Allen & Overy, including Partners Calum Burnett and Sarah Hitchins, regularly share their thoughts with Practical Law Financial Services subscribers on topical developments in financial services investigations and enforcement.

In the group's column for December 2022, Sarah, and Associate, David McMenamin, consider the link between non-financial misconduct and an individual's role that must be established for certain regulatory consequences to follow, and how recent cases have grappled (and in some cases struggled) with this issue.
