Course description
What clients see and use to make informed choices when investing, is a big issue for the regulator.
Getting your Financial Promotions right, irrespective of the media used, is critical for firms. What would happen if your staff were to issue a financial promotion and it wasn’t clear, fair and not misleading?
Firms must have systems and processes for making sure everything that could be seen by clients is compliant and signed off by someone who is competent to do so. Mistakes could lead to reputational damage and enforcement action by the regulator and could be costly.
Firms cannot assume all staff know what the rules are. This training workshop will provide the relevant teams with the confidence to produce compliant yet creative financial promotions and put in place workable systems and controls which allow you to get important messages about your products and services out quickly.
