In July 2022, the Financial Conduct Authority, or FCA, published a policy statement, with final rules, on its Consumer Duty initiative. This comprises a new principle, cross-cutting rules, and four outcomes for retail consumers. The Consumer Duty will mean that consumers should receive communications they can understand products and services that meet their needs and offer fair value, and obtain the customer support they need, when they need it. Clarity on the FCA's expectations, and firms' focus on what their customers need, should lead to more flexibility for firms to compete and innovate in the interests of consumers. With firms assessing how they are meeting their customers' needs, the FCA will be able to quickly identify practices that do not deliver the right outcomes for consumers and take action before practices become entrenched as market norms. Regulated firms will have to comply with the Consumer Duty from 31 July 2023, with a delayed implementation of 31 July 2024 for products that are closed or not being sold to new investors.

Description Of the many vulnerabilities and threats to the financial services sector, financial crime risk has emerged as a pervasive, yet widely misunderstood category of risk. As consumers, governments, and the financial industry have gained familiarity with various forms of financial crime, financial services organizations have seen that the underlying risk of financial crimes not only includes the direct action taken by criminals, but also includes the impact of deterrence, detection, and resolution on the organization and its customers. Financial services organizations have the difficult task of effectively identifying the greatest risks to themselves and to their customers, protecting both parties against unnecessary risks and satisfying regulatory requirements for greater transparency, awareness, and consolidation of information across the organization. This interactive and engaging programme aims to help participants understand the financial crime regulatory framework; and develop a comprehension on the management of financial crime risks.

Ethics and compliance training is helpful for encouraging appropriate behavior, setting expectations, demonstrating the organization's commitment, and informing employees of laws or regulatory principles that may not be common knowledge. Description This course will help you to increase your personal ethics and explore your obligations to act with integrity in all aspects of your work and professional relationships. You will also appreciate an Ethical Code of Standards and examine how you can prevent bribery and corruption based on a financial regulatory context. Integrity and scruples not only keep us out of court and out of prison, but they are good for business. One study found that companies making 'an explicit commitment to doing business ethically' have produced profit/turnover ratios at 18% higher than those without a similar commitment. Conversely, a bad reputation can ruin a business - ethics and compliance training is how an organization can avoid that. Training Duration This course may take up to 2.5 hours to be completed. However, actual study time differs as each learner uses their own training pace. Participants This course is ideal for anyone wishing to consider ethics from a financial regulatory perspective. It is also suitable to professionals pursuing regulatory CPD in Financial Regulation. Training Method The course is offered fully online using a self-paced approach.

This module provides an overview of the individual Conduct Rules introduced by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) - the UK's financial services regulators - which initially came into effect progressively between 2016 and 2021. The rules are part of the Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR), a package of measures that represent a fundamental change in the way in which individuals working within the UK financial services sector are held to account by the regulators. These Conduct Rules originally applied only to those firms which are 'dual-regulated' by both the PRA and the FCA. The SMCR was extended in December 2019 to apply to staff in all regulated firms. This module is intended for both staff who are subject to certification and to all other staff who are, apart from the Conduct Rules, not otherwise subject to the SMCR. If you are in a senior manager function (SMF) or a non-executive director (NED), this module does not address all of your Conduct Rule Obligations. You are encouraged to work through the LGCA's Conduct Rules for Senior Manager Professional course instead.
