The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), in its Conflicts of Interest Policy document (published in January 2019), defines a conflict of interest as follows: 'A conflict of interest arises when your work could be affected by your personal financial matters or a close personal relationship. It could also arise if your work could be affected by a personal interest of your close family or any other close personal relationship with an individual. It becomes significant if any person, internally or externally, might reasonably believe there is a risk of your actions, or those of a personal associate, being inappropriately influenced.'
