SUMMARY:28th May 2024: Consumer Duty - Live Online Course
DESCRIPTION:In July 2022\, the Financial Conduct Authority\, or FCA\, published a policy statement\, with final rules\, on its Consumer Duty initiative. This comprises a new principle\, cross-cutting rules\, and four outcomes for retail consumers. The Consumer Duty will mean that consumers should receive communications they can understand products and services that meet their needs and offer fair value\, and obtain the customer support they need\, when they need it. Clarity on the FCA’s expectations\, and firms’ focus on what their customers need\, should lead to more flexibility for firms to compete and innovate in the interests of consumers. With firms assessing how they are meeting their customers’ needs\, the FCA will be able to quickly identify practices that do not deliver the right outcomes for consumers and take action before practices become entrenched as market norms. Regulated firms will have to comply with the Consumer Duty from 31 July 2023\, with a delayed implementation of 31 July 2024 for products that are closed or not being sold to new investors. \n  \nLearning Outcomes\nBy the end of the programme\, participants will: \n\nUnderstand and explain the FCA Consumer Duty\nArticulate the changes required as a result of the Consumer Duty\nExplain the desired outcomes for consumers\nDescribe how firms can begin to evidence their compliance with the Duty\nAppreciate how the Consumer Duty applies across different sectors\n\n  \nWho Should Attend \nRelevant staff roles include Risk and Compliance\, Operational Oversight and Management. \n  \nTraining Details\n\n4 CPD Units\n4 Hours\nLive Online\n28 May 2024\n09:00 – 13:00 UK Time\nOnline\n\n  \nRegulatory expectations – the role of Compliance Monitoring\n\nAims of the Duty\nThe Consumer Principle\n3 cross-cutting rules\n4 outcomes\nImpact on Conduct Rules\n\n  \nTraining Outline \nMonitoring Outcomes under the Consumer Duty \n\nWhat do the regulators expect?\nWhat might a monitoring programme look like?\nFocus on vulnerability\n\n  \nSenior Managers and the Consumer Duty \n\nRegulatory Expectations\nSupporting senior managers from the bottom up\nBuilding evidence of reasonable steps\n\n  \nRecognising differences \n\nImpact on retail banking\nImpact on consumer credit\nImpact on wealth and asset management\nImpact on insurance distribution\nImpact on mortgages\n\n  \nTrainer\nIndustry Expert | Steve Fairclough \n \nSteve began his financial services career in 1993 and has over 20 years practical training experience across a range of sectors and topics.  He is a former Head of Education for HSBC covering the UK and Europe\, responsible for regulatory and financial crime related compliance learning.  His time at HSBC was during intense scrutiny from regulators and government functions during the bank’s Deferred Prosecution Agreement.  Other roles include leading the Monitoring and Testing programme for a UK Wealth Manager\, and Senior Vice President responsible for Global Risk & Compliance training at a US-based bank.  He also worked in the Insurance Firms division at the Financial Conduct Authority (in the FSA days) where he was the divisional expert for the rules and outcomes required under the Training & Competence handbook. \nThe HSBC role\, along with five years at Barclays in their Private Clients and Wealth functions\, has seen Steve work with retail\, commercial\, wholesale and private banking channels.  Since leaving HSBC\, Stephen has worked with the compliance\, HR and operational teams of firms to enhance their regulatory understanding\, as well as delivering content across private equity firms\, investment houses\, banks and wealth managers.  He regularly delivers core programmes for TISA and the Investment Association. \nSteve is a former member of the Investment Management Association Training & Education Committee and won the Thomson Reuters award for “Most Effective Compliance Training at a Regulated Firm” in 2010. \n  \nFor more information\, please reach out to: \nDenis Sureyev\, VP of Business Development\, LGCA\, at dsureyev@lgca.uk \nLearn More
