Chasing a moving target: Financial Services quarterly regulatory updates
The regulatory landscape for the financial services industry has changed significantly over the past years. A little over a year ago, industry outlooks were blissfully ignorant of the COVID-19 pandemic which made the landscape even more challenging. This together with other regulatory changes on the horizon will continue to keep regulated entities and subject persons on their toes.
Regulated entities including banks and other financial institutions, must therefore keep themselves updated with ongoing industry developments. As regulations become increasingly more complex, businesses need to ensure that they are fully compliant in a timely and accurate manner, in order to effectively mitigate risks in this challenging environment.
Following the success of the first edition of Chasing a Moving Target, EY Connect Learning is launching a new quarterly regulatory series in 2022 focused on noteworthy regulatory updates and developments impacting subject persons and regulated entities. Each session will cover salient regulatory updates and industry developments both from a local and EU perspective. Such sessions will include updates on the EU Anti-Money Laundering package and other key financial crime updates. The sessions will also include developments in EU regulation/directives and updates to local legislation and applicable rules and conditions.
