The Certification Regime is a key component of the increased accountability regulations.  First introduced in 2016 to Banks and Building Societies it was extended on 10 December 2018 to include Insurers.  The same regime is being extended to all other solo regulated FCA firms in December 2019. 

To understand the Certification Regime and why you need to act now it is important to understand the background to the changes, what the regulator expects, how this regime relates to the Senior Managers Regime and Code of Conduct as well as how your approach to T&C and Approved Persons will be affected. This workshop covers all of these elements.

Who should attend?
The requirements of the Certification Regime are being extended to all regulatory firms from 10 December 2019. The key message for delegates is to take advantage of the time they have been given to prepare for the successful implementation of the regime.  Anyone who wishes to gain a better understanding of the Certification Regime, its requirements and how to build a response to them should attend.

What are the outcomes of attending?
To explain the key changes arising from the increased accountability regulations
To identify the senior manager responsible for certification and the essential communication channels that need to be in place
To capture the population who fall into scope of the certification regime and the consequences of operating a split supervision model
To be aware of the HR issues flowing from the introduction of the certification regime
To conduct a FIT assessment on the different categories of significant harm functions within scope and the ongoing approaches needed to maintain FITness
To understand the relationship between the code of conduct and certification regime and how to embed it successfully within your firm
To define a sign off process for the issue of a certificate
To build a dashboard to assist with the governance of the certification requirements and the reporting requirements expected by the regulator
To build a high level plan of the key steps that need to be taken before 10 December 2019 and during the first year of implementation.
