ComplySci 2022 CCO Playbook UK edition analyzes FCA 2022 - 2025 business strategies and provides tactical strategies for UK-based compliance teams
Highlights of this year's playbook include:
"Having a detailed understanding of the regulatory ecosystem is only one aspect of a successful compliance program", said ComplySci Chief Executive Officer Amy Kadomatsu. "Compliance leaders must develop an integrated approach that drives strategic value for their firms. This playbook can help professionals build a regulatory compliance program, which analyzes changing financial systems and mitigates potential risks with appropriate protocols and tools and deliver real value to their firms".
In the 2021 fiscal year, the FCA levied fines worth £568 million, which included a first-of-its-kind anti-money laundering prosecution. Additionally, 176 firms had permissions cancelled. To advance and innovate how they engage the market and consumers, the FCA launched their InvestSmart campaign and made efforts to improve their sandbox for firms looking to test solutions.
As firms continue to make strides to embrace consumer trends while maintaining regulatory compliance, it is crucial they anticipate the potential risk that comes with innovation. The risk and regulatory focus on cyberattack perfectly illustrates the types of new challenges compliance programs are faced with today.
"The importance of compliance within organizations continues to grow", said Kadomatsu. "Firms around the world, regardless of size, are facing new risks which have the potential to seriously impact their customers and their business. The FCA has clearly stated where their focus lays for the next three years, encouraging firms to continue their focus on innovative financial solutions, while also maintaining a required level of security for end consumers. ComplySci and its family of firms is committed to providing a variety of governance, risk and compliance offerings to help meet the unique needs of firms in 2022, protecting the interests of the consumer and the market at large".
