Course description
Risk Based Compliance Monitoring under the FCA (Live Online) - In House Training
Today, Compliance managers are under more pressure than ever to make sure they are targeting risks, and resources, as effectively as possible and adapting their monitoring to the changing regulatory environment. Yet despite their best efforts, many firms continue to face action or have significant failures of controls. Monitoring is too often approached as a mechanistic task focused on rote compliance, not the “outcomes” on which the FCA is focused.
Through extensive use of practical examples, attending will help Compliance and Monitoring professionals identify the principle compliance risks in their business and design and execute a risk based compliance monitoring plan accordingly.
