Course overview:

The question all relevant firms should be asking themselves is “if the FCA came in tomorrow would we be able to competently answer their ten Consumer Duty questions with supporting evidence?”

This half-day workshop will take you through what the regulator will be looking for, to give you reassurance that you are ready for a supervisory visit. 

In order to support your Consumer Duty embedding the FCA will expect you to have access to robust MI.

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to: 

  • Discuss the expected answers to the FCA’s ten questions  
  • Confirm the type of evidence required  
  • Explore the MI Dashboard requirements 
  • Identify gaps you may have in your implementation of the Duty

Take this training in-house:

This workshop is also available as an in-house programme, which means you can tailor it to exactly what you and your colleagues require. Pricing for in-house will depend on what is required. Enquire about this option by contacting our training team.
