It is a key principle for banks to deal with regulators in all relevant jurisdictions openly. Banks must disclose anything relating to their firm specifically where the regulator would reasonably expect notice.
This interactive practice workshop, in partnership with Eversheds Sutherland, will help attendees to navigate the requirement to notify when they interact with the UK regulators. The session will help firms understand the expectations of the PRA and the FCA, and work through the areas which go beyond the specific regulatory rules.

Attendees will be seated in groups for breakout sessions and will feed back their thoughts to the rest of the group, with each discussion facilitated by a member of the Eversheds Sutherland team.
Who should attend?
