Course description
Better understand how your firm’s culture is driving conduct risk performance. And put fairness at the heart of your business.
Consumer Duty (and a wave of subsequent misconduct scandals) has focused the regulator to the issue of culture and its link with conduct. The FCA now expects you to create a culture of fairness, looking at your firm’s culture as the potential root cause of poor outcomes for your customers. But while many firms place a high value on organisational culture, far fewer understand how to link culture with conduct risk and improved outcomes for customers.
“Treat conduct risk as seriously as any other risk on your balance sheet”
Change in culture will only come when the tone at the top is right. However, it also requires staff throughout a business to understand and accept the values and practices the firm espouses. Firms must ensure that all of their processes support and reinforce the culture they want to promote.
But we know that understanding the interaction between culture and conduct risk still remains a challenge for many firms.
