SUMMARY:PIMFA Webinar: Authentic Leadership Programme 'Find out more' session May 2023
DESCRIPTION:The Authentic Leadership programme is PIMFA’s response to supporting women who face a unique set of challenges when progressing into senior leadership positions. \nOur research shows that women aiming to rise to leadership positions in wealth and finance still have to overcome a set of challenges\, including the Imposter Syndrome\, unconscious bias in the workplace\, a peer group that shrinks as they assume more senior roles. \nIn this session with Programme Lead\, Caroline Holt invites you to: \n• Find out if the programme is appropriate for you or your colleagues\n• Hear about women graduates who have completed the programme\n• Get your questions answered about the programme – what you will get from it\, how it all works\, the admission process and fees\n• Discover how this programme differs from other Women in Leadership programmes for women

SUMMARY:PIMFA Learning: Consumer Duty Series - Session 1: Practical Strategies & Approaches For Testing Consumer Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:With fundamental regulatory change like the introduction of the Consumer Duty\, the problem for firms both large and small often isn’t with planning – many strategies are well developed – but with execution. The Consumer Duty series tackles the implementation of Consumer Duty head-on to provide PIMFA member firms with a well-structured approach for Project Leads\, Compliance & Risk Heads alongside Senior Managers to confidently meet the July deadline. \nYou will return from each of the three sessions with a set of tools and approaches you can use to: \n\n\n\nImprove your ability to organise\, manage\, and prioritise the key requirements of the Duty\nAnticipate and avoid pitfalls that could derail your project plan.\nRespond to FCA’s latest announcements and instructions.\nAddress your firm’s most critical Consumer Duty issues.\nFeedback and answers to your Consumer Duty execution challenges\n\n\n\nSession one: Practical Strategies & Approaches For Testing Consumer Outcomes  \nThe Duty requires firms to help customers achieve good outcomes\, and to report on this annually. Consequently\, firms must be able to measure if they are achieving good outcomes for their customers. \nIn part one of this three-part session series\, The Consumer Duty team at PwC will support you: \n\n\n\nAssess design considerations for testing each of the four outcomes;\nDecide what data will be required for monitoring and testing outcomes;\nDirect what actions may be required to remediate poor outcomes.\n\n\n\nBy the end of this session\, you will be able to: \n\n\n\nEnsure that your definition of what a good outcome against the expectations set out in the Consumer Duty stands up to regulatory scrutiny.\nEvidence that your firm can achieve good outcomes across each client touchpoint and to the standards set out in the cross-cutting rules.\nDevelop a proven approach to review and improve your existing outcome testing arrangements.\nCompare your firm’s approach to outcomes testing with your peers.\nGrasp how your firm can use outcome testing to reveal causality and highlight areas for improvement.\nLearn how to overcome the challenges of demonstrating compliance with the ‘consumer understanding’ outcome.\nInterpret the data you’ve gathered and recorded from your tests to evaluate performance and to inform recommendations.\n\n\n\nFormat and approach \nThis two-hour online session is an interactive learning experience that brings the research and experience of the PwC Wealth Management team together with senior managers who want to strengthen their firms’ approach to Consumer Duty implementation. In this online workshop\, you will be broken into smaller discussion groups to work through exercises\, discuss scenarios and collaborate with your peers on solutions to overcome even your most challenging execution obstacles.

SUMMARY:PIMFA Webinar Staying a step ahead – how to identify and respond to regulatory ‘hot topics’
DESCRIPTION:  \nThere are lots of regulatory publications to keep on top of. Enforcement notices and Dear CEO letters often contain rich insight into the thoughts and priorities of Regulators. At a minimum\, they require consideration and assessment as to what they mean for you. Indeed\, it is common in Final Notices for reference to made to previous regulatory soundings\, that meant the firm should have been on notice to the particular concerns. And so\, these publications almost become pseudo-rules in their own right. However\, with the volume and length of these documents\, demonstrating your reasonable steps is not easy. \nIn this FREE 60-minute webinar\, the team at Avyse Partners cut through the noise\, highlighting for you the essential regulatory requirements\, themes and messages you might have missed from recent announcements. \nThis webinar will: \n\n\n\nMake sense of recent FCA Enforcement notices and Dear CEO letters\nExtract for you the most salient points from the regulator’s most recent documents & speeches\nMake your life easier by tackling forthcoming regulatory headwinds using Avyse FREE gap analyse tool\nSupport you avoid committing the same regulatory breaches and failings as your peers

SUMMARY:PIMFA Webinar: Consumer Duty through a Training and Competence Lens
DESCRIPTION:Now that the FCA’s plans for the new Consumer Duty have started to sink in\, firms are now getting to grips with what they need to accomplish by July 31st. However\, whilst there is a lot of discussion about the new principle for business\, cross-cutting rules and new conduct rules\, there appears to be very little discussion at this stage about the over-arching role of “employee competence.” \nWould your organisation be confident to hand over their Training & Competence records to the regulator? If asked\, could your firm demonstrate the gap analysis and subsequent development plans for each new starter you’ve onboarded in the last few years? Would being asked to demonstrate “role relevant” training on conduct rules to staff make you start to feel a little uncomfortable? \nRegardless of whether you might answer Yes/No/Don’t know to any one of those questions\, we think your input and perspective would add value to our debate on the topic\, so\, join PIMFA and the Worksmart team to discuss: \n  \n\nThe regulators expectations\nThe implications of the new Conduct Rule 6\nWhat does good T&C look like under Consumer Duty?\nHow you can evidence\, measure\, and monitor the competence of the staff to deliver defined customer outcomes\nHow firms can your approach to T&C support Culture change in your firm\nHow RegTech can improve your approach to T&C
