Overview
Over the last ten years, compliance functions have increased their resources and have widened their range of tasks, with a dramatic increase in their monitoring and surveillance activities, whether manual or substantially automated. This growth has reflected, in part, the post-crisis regulatory reform agenda and more intensive and intrusive supervision. Compliance functions now have an increased profile and higher expectations placed upon them. However, a changing business environment, tough economic and competitive conditions, evolving risks and cost pressures on financial institutions have led to increasing pressure on compliance functions to re-align to business strategic goals and to transform into a more value-add service line that can deliver more effectively and efficiently. Moreover, despite having strengthened the control environment and enhanced compliance with regulatory requirements over the last decade, the focus and mindset of compliance in many organisations remains overly risk-averse, conservative and still struggles with the remediation of past problems, resulting in limited bandwidth to support, as well as continuing to challenge the business.
This module aims to familiarise participants with current as well as upcoming regulations, corresponding monitoring, reporting and compliance requirements, and their impact on the wider financial services sector; in particular, participants will learn how regulations after the 2008 financial crisis have and are still reshaping the financial services landscape.
