New FCA Rules on Non-Financial Misconduct: Perspectives from Both Sides of the Atlantic

New FCA Rules on Non-Financial Misconduct: Perspectives from Both Sides of the Atlantic

Virtual
Webinar CLE
Access On-Demand Webinar*

Join WilmerHale Partners Lloyd Firth and Michelle Diamond and Counsel Imogen Makin for an in-depth discussion on recent developments concerning non-financial misconduct.

The regulatory landscape relating to non-financial misconduct is undergoing significant transformation in both the UK and the US, albeit in diverging directions. While the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the UK has recently confirmed that it is introducing new rules to address non-financial misconduct, the US is charting a different course with contrasting priorities and approaches. These evolving frameworks present both challenges and opportunities for organizations operating in, or engaging with, both markets. 

Topics of discussion will include:

  • Non-Financial Misconduct: Background and Recent Headlines in a Wide Range of Industries
  • FCA Policy Statement
  • Other Recent Actions Regarding Non-Financial Misconduct
  • Trans-Atlantic Divergence
  • Actions in Response to the New Rules

Participants will have the opportunity to contribute questions for the panelists online during the webinar. CLE credit is pending for this program.

*CLE credit is not available for those who watch a recording of the webinar.

WilmerHale has been accredited by the New York State and California State Continuing Legal Education Boards as a provider of continuing legal education. This program is being planned with the intention to offer CLE credit in California and non-transitional credit in New York for attendees who join the live presentation. This program, therefore, is being planned with the intention to offer CLE credit for experienced New York attorneys only. Attendees of this program may be able to claim England & Wales CPD. WilmerHale has been approved as a Colorado Certified Provider, as recognized by the Colorado Supreme Court Continuing Legal and Judicial Education Committee. We will apply for Colorado CLE (after the program) if requested. The type and amount of credit awarded will be determined solely by the Colorado Supreme Court. New Jersey grants reciprocal credit for programs that are approved in New York. We can also issue Connecticut credit. All attendees, regardless of jurisdiction, will receive a uniform certificate of attendance that shows the states in which the program was approved. Attendees who need credit in another jurisdiction can use the uniform certificate of attendance to self-apply. CLE credit is not available for on-demand webinar recordings.
