SUMMARY:Market Abuse 2025 refresher for Wealth Managers

However you choose to participate\, this session is run as 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.

SUMMARY:PIMFA Webinar: What Senior Managers Need To Know in 2026
DESCRIPTION:Don’t be fooled. \nThe proposed simplification of the Senior Managers & Certification Regime (SM&CR) should not be interpreted as a dilution of senior management accountability. \nWhile policymakers review “streamlining” the regime\, the FCA’s enforcement against individuals has spiked — with financial penalties against senior managers tripling in the past year and individual prohibitions rising from 19 to 30. \nThe message is clear: the regulator isn’t easing up — it’s closing in. \nThis 60-minute briefing\, led by Peter Haines and Nigel Sydenham of CCL Academy\, cuts through the noise to show senior leaders where to focus in 2026\, how to stay off the FCA’s radar\, and what “reasonable steps” now really look like in practice. \nKey Discussion topics: \n\nDon’t be lulled by change – what the latest SM&CR updates really mean for you\, and why the personal risk curve is rising\, not falling.\nSignals from enforcement – what recent FCA fines and prohibitions reveal about where leaders are falling short.\nTop three knowledge gaps that expose firms to regulatory and reputational risk.\nFrom compliance to competence – how effective senior managers build the breadth and depth of regulatory insight to make joined-up\, defensible decisions.\n\nWho should attend \nCEOs\, COOs\, SMFs\, Board & ExCo members\, Heads of Risk/Compliance\, and senior leaders who need a clear 2026 focus without drowning in technical detail. \nYou’ll leave with \n\nA clear shortlist of priorities for Q1–Q2 2026.\nA practical lens for interpreting enforcement trends and management information.\nA sharper steer on how to spot and remediate common blind spots in oversight and culture.\n\n  \n  \n
