AFB Masterclass: Impact of Recent Enforcement Cases and Supervisory Activity on Senior Managers Regime Compliance
Earlier this year, AFB conducted research to assess the current and future training needs of the membership.   The results highlighted a strong demand for a course that would help individuals understand their personal responsibilities as an SMF and help with how to balance firm obligations versus regulatory obligations.  Based on this feedback, AFB in partnership with A&O Shearman have developed this new masterclass for existing established SMFs.
