The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has written to banks urging them to speed up their review of how interest rate hedging products were sold.

The High Court has given the go ahead to around 550 investors to pursue Capita over losses they incurred when Arch Cru collapsed.

Half the companies in the FTSE 100 could be affected by new rules designed to protect minority investors.
