The Supreme Court’s judgment in Macris as well as a couple of noteworthy judicial review decisions are among the financial services developments recently handed down from the bench. Adam Samuel goes to court (or at least a roam around the law reports).

A bit like London buses, one waits for interesting financial services compliance-related cases for months and then they trail in all at once – usually just as any serious written work is due to go to a publisher.
