What the FCA register says.
On 10 November 2022, the FCA decided to impose a financial penalty on Metro Bank Plc. The reason for this action is because Metro Bank Plc failed to comply with Listing Rule 1.3.3 in 24 October 2018. This matter has not been referred by Metro Bank Plc to the Upper Tribunal. The FCA’s findings and proposed action are therefore final. The FCA’s Final Notice was issued on 8 December and a copy of the Final Notice is displayed on the FCA’s web site here:
