If your client is being interviewed by the FCA – unless they have frozen his/her assets they should definitely be paying privately.
It will neither be simple or short – they produce a shed load of documents all of which ideally you will want to see in advance.

That is capped at £99pw, so if not feasible CRM11 is claimable if interviewed by police or at a police station under PACE rules. Try asking the investigator to borrow an interview room at a local police station.

Subject: Question re legal aid for interview under caution
Hi All,
We have a client who has been requested by the FCA to attend voluntary interview under caution. Does this type of interview still entitle us to claim legal aid payment should we attend to represent?
Thanks,
