SUMMARY:The SMF Regulatory Briefing Programme 2027 – All You Need to Know About Everything That Matters Most
DESCRIPTION:What the FCA expects from Senior Managers \nThe FCA takes the competence of your Senior Managers very seriously. Upon applying to become an SMF\, the FCA expects an individual to demonstrate a high level of skill and knowledge to carry out the role\, supporting their application by completing a skills gap analysis\, learning and development plan\, and competency assessment. \nRemaining Fit and Proper \nBut the regulator’s scrutiny of an SMF doesn’t stop at the application stage. The FCA expects your firm to ensure that your SMF holders continue to possess the requisite skills\, particularly concerning the latest regulatory developments. Annual fit and proper assessments\, mandated by the regulator and conducted by your firm\, are not a ‘tick box’ exercise requiring you instead to carefully assess whether your senior managers are competent in performing their roles. \nThe solution \nPIMFA’s 12-month ‘SMF Regulatory Briefing Programme’ supports SMF holders in learning everything they need to know about the issues that matter most to them.
