In this session, we will consider what reasonable steps really means for senior managers, and the broader implications for firms and individuals. We will discuss how the banks approached reasonable steps, some of the pitfalls that should be avoided, and how the use of technology has evolved and can form a core part of a reasonable steps framework.
Topics will include:
- FCA policy objectives
- How to turn theory into practice – applying reasonable steps to different types of organization and roles
- Dealing with different management styles – being too prescriptive may not always be the best approach
- Practical considerations for the oversight of delegated activities
- Oversight of activities outside the senior manager’s direct span of control – dependencies on other functions and outsourced service providers
- Enforcement considerations – the reasonable steps defense
Speakers
- David McNair Scott, CEO, Trailight
