Representatives of regulatory and supervisory authorities in the financial services sector; professionals from financial institutions who are in charge of legal and compliance functions; regulatory affairs managers in business and professional associations; academics and other professionals with an interest in governance rules.

Description

This seminar will bring together the representatives of supervisory authorities and the banking industry to exchange on their practices in relation to the application of internal governance rules in financial institutions. Participants will have an opportunity to discuss supervisory practices adopted by supervisors as well as governance arrangements followed by the industry to satisfy the requirements of the supervisors. Hereby, workshops and case studies will enable participants to gain insight into practical problems faced by companies and different solutions adopted to overcome these problems. Finally, the seminar should serve as a platform for best practice exchange as well as for the discussion about the legal impact of governance rules and challenges coming out from these rules for all actors involved.

Learning methodology

A balanced combination of presentations, case studies and discussion sessions. The seminar will follow an interactive method and offer participants a platform for questions and exchange with experts.

Objectives

This seminar aims to provide practical information on how to satisfy internal governance requirements for financial institutions. In addition, it should serve as a platform for exchange of experience and information-sharing regarding the challenges faced when implementing governance rules. The experts will discuss current requirements for internal governance policy in financial institutions, different responsibilities of control as well as practices to be implemented by compliance managers to guarantee sound risk management and control functions in their companies. In this context, experiences gained to date and the question of proper balance between exercising effective prudential regulation and promoting innovation in the financial sector will also be discussed.
