Regulator Interview Coaching
Overview
Senior Managers are often required to meet with regulators. This can be as a result of a specific incident, such as a customer complaint, part of a specific thematic review or as part of a periodic review of the firm by the regulator.
Whatever the context, it is crucial to get the message across clearly, concisely and confidently.
We offer interview coaching to cover situations where senior managers:
- Require preparation for initial approval interviews; or
- Wish to discuss general interactions with the regulators
- Are concerned about what “reasonable steps” mean in the context of their role.
Because our trainers have worked closely with all types of Board members and senior managers in most types of firms, we are well placed to discuss the “reasonable steps” that should be taken in practice in order to perform a role as a senior manager in a regulated firm.
Learning Outcomes
After attending this course, participants will be able to:
