A global guide to individual accountability compliance
Since the global financial crisis, there has been an ever-increasing focus globally on holding those in senior positions within regulated financial institutions accountable for their actions. This phenomenon has forced firms to adapt and prepare their practice for the implementation of new and more scrupulous obligations.
Our Individual accountability hub has been created on the NRF Institute to provide a comprehensive understanding of the new expectations for anyone preparing for, and needing to comply with, individual accountability obligations across the globe.
Also available via the hub is our SMCR Toolkit, a subscription-only, cost-effective service providing access to all of the key documents that firms need to implement the regime within their business.
