SUMMARY:SEAR/IAF – The countdown has begun!
DESCRIPTION:Since the Central Bank of Ireland proposed the introduction of the Senior Executive Accountability Regime and the broader Individual Accountability Framework\, firms and individuals alike have been working hard to assess the changes required and the impact of the new regime on those affected. Due to the type and scale of the changes planned\, this is likely to be one of the most impactful regulatory changes seen in recent years. \nThe recent consultation paper published by the Central Bank has clearly laid out what the new regulatory expectations will be and whilst firms digest both this document and the supporting guidance\, there are still many firms and individuals looking to gain further clarity on how this will impact them. With the clock ticking towards the initial implementation dates\, now is the time to start considering how you and your organisation could benefit from exploring how RegTech can support and streamline your accountability regime. \nWith more experience of SM&CR implementations in the UK than other RegTech supplier\, why not join the Worksmart team as we discuss and debate the challenges that the new regime will bring to firms\, and the lessons learnt from UK organisations who have now been subject to an accountability regime for some years now. \nWhilst some aspects of the newly proposed regime/framework including SEAR\, will initially only apply to certain regulated firms\, others such as new conduct rules for certain individuals and business standards for firms will apply for all regulated firms. We will seek to discuss and debate all areas and engage with the audience for polling\, commentary\, Q & A’s and general observations and experience\, so if you feel that you and your firm could benefit from the vast experience that the Worksmart team have built up in the UK\, then join us for what will be a lively and open discussion. \nTo book click here \nVanessa Palmer\nDatabase & Events Management Principal\nvanessa.palmer@worksmart.co.uk\n07535031514

SUMMARY:Linking Consumer Duty outcomes to Employee Competence
DESCRIPTION:Since the FCA introduced plans for Consumer Duty\, firms and individuals alike have been working hard to ensure they deliver against the new requirements. However\, whilst there has been a lot of work put into implementing the cross-cutting rules\, and the four consumer outcomes\, very little has been said about the “employee” dimension\, other than in respect of the Conduct Rules. \nIf asked\, would your organisation be confident to hand over their Training & Competence records to the regulator? If they asked to see your T&C Regime pre-Consumer Duty and post\, would it really look any different? If asked\, could your firm demonstrate analysis and decisions around appropriate MI to evidence that your T&C scheme supports good consumer outcomes? 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 the Worksmart team to discuss: \n1. The regulators expectations of your T&C Regime\n2. What analysis and changes have you made to your T&C arrangements in light of Consumer Duty\n3. What does a good T&C regime look like under Consumer Duty?\n4. How you can evidence\, measure\, and monitor the competence of the staff to deliver defined customer outcomes\n5. How can your T&C arrangements support Culture change in your firm\n6. How RegTech can improve your approach to T&C \nTo book click here \nVanessa Palmer\nDatabase & Events Management Principal\nvanessa.palmer@worksmart.co.uk\n07535031514
