Information

To what extent has deregulation, the growth agenda, commercial pressures, cost-cutting, and transformation fatigue diluted the focus on risk culture and conduct? How has the pace of change in improving conduct, culture, and ethics within financial institutions evolved in recent years? What factors are hindering further meaningful progress in this area? Do culture and conduct initiatives still attract sufficient support from the board? What steps can firms take to ensure they retain appropriate ‘tone from the top’ on an ongoing basis? To what extent is positive incentivisation changing culture & conduct for the better? Are financial penalties enough to deter financial institutions for not taking culture and conduct seriously or should a different approach be taken?
