Management Systems and Controls

All regulated Financial Services Organisations and institutions will now be aware that management responsibility is at the centre of the new regulatory regime. 'Management Systems and controls' are vitally important for establishing a risk management profile. Firms must be able to demonstrate that their supervisory and internal control processes are robust and transparent to suit the regulator and more importantly your clients and employees. FSTC have aligned with several of the leading sector consultancies within this field to give participants an impartial and expert view of steps already taken by organisations and to advise of future requirements. For an initial review contact info@fstcollege.com


Corporate Governance (Organisational Compliance)

The change in regulatory emphasis comes at a time when the financial services industry, like all other sectors of the economy, is undergoing a major shift in the way business is being conducted. This brings new risks and the need to review risk management approaches. Hence, the role of corporate governance has dramatically changed and will change further in the coming months. FSTC will provide advice and support to your function for personnel development and evaluation, resource deployment via secondment and short-term placement.


Training and Competence

The implementation of PS60 and associated N2 changes has resulted in many firms reviewing their training strategy. Subsequent rescheduling and reshaping of training functions and their deliverables has had an increasing drain on training department resource and expertise. FSTC continues to provide out sourced support to Training Directors and Departments for both regulated and non-regulated business areas. FSTC have a current database of experienced competent training professionals to provide locum and long term deployment to our sector clients.
