  • The Design and Distribution Obligations (DDO) introduce a new approach to consumer protection, by moving away from relying on disclosure as the main form of protection and introducing new measures to improve the likelihood that products are distributed to clients for whom they’ve been designed (ie the target market). On 5 October 2021, the Design and Distribution Obligations (DDO) will come into effect for all issuers and distributors of financial products that are covered by DDO.
