In a regulatory environment where efficiency, accountability and agility are paramount, compliance teams are expected to do more with less. The challenge? Managing complex obligations, multiple systems and growing workloads, all while maintaining oversight and control.

As regulatory expectations continue to evolve, firms across the financial sector are under pressure to maintain robust Know Your Customer (KYC) frameworks while managing rising operational costs and growing compliance workloads. For many, outsourcing KYC functions has emerged as a strategic way to ensure efficiency, scalability and regulatory alignment.

This session will provide FCA-regulated firms with practical, actionable steps to enhance their ICARA process, not only to meet MIFIDPRU 7 obligations, but also to strengthen strategic decision-making, increase risk resilience, and embed ICARA into day-to-day operations.
