MASTER: The Role of the Compliance Officer
This workshop explores the responsibilities of an SMF16.
This session will be delivered in our usual style, interactive with small delegate numbers to ensure that you get the most out of the sessions. Sharing best practices and learning how other firms approach situations is the name of the game for this style of event.

Why should I attend?
At the end of the workshop delegates will be able to:
- Fully understand the role of Compliance Officer and exactly what the regulator expects from you.
- Understand how you can effectively manage the compliance oversight function within your firm, or how to be ready to do so if you’re looking to step into this role.
- Understand the key processes you need to be aware of, and any pitfalls to avoid!
- Be able to identify what relevant processes, controls, and structures are in place to ensure the firm is operating within the FCA’s handbook rules and how to create them if needed.
