In this SPECIAL EDITION of our banking litigation podcast, we consider a key risk area for financial institutions handling client payments – the so-called Quincecare duty of care. This episode is hosted by John Corrie, who is joined by Ceri Morgan and special guests Jenny Stainsby and Scott Warin.

The English courts continue to grapple with payment processing claims brought by both victims of authorised push payment (APP) fraud and companies subject to an internal fraud by an authorised signatory who has gone rogue.  While the seminal Supreme Court decision in Philipp v Barclays [2023] UKSC 25 recalibrated the payment processing duties owed by banks, court guidance is still needed on what is required to meet the requisite standard on a case-by-case basis, and claimants continue to explore novel causes of action. Alongside numerous civil claims working their way through the courts, the Payment Systems Regulator has introduced the UK's APP fraud reimbursement scheme. In our latest podcast, we explain the current state of payment processing claims in a post-Philipp v Barclays world, offering insights into this rapidly changing area of law.
