SMCR Conference: The View from Industry 2019 | UK Finance | 10 September 2019 | Ashurst, London Fruit & Wool Exchange 1 Duval Square, London E1 6PW, UK

Three years on from the implementation of the senior managers regime, and with the rollout to the wider financial sector only months away, UK Finance has carried out a survey on the impact of the SMCR. Our aim? To discover what the SMCR looks like now and what has become 'business as usual' under the new regime, while also providing members with useful insights as to how the practices of their firm compare to their peers.

At the conference we will:
• Explore the outputs of the Ashurst report and the perspectives of those charged with implementation (both practitioners and solutions providers).
• Discuss the shared lessons, emerging good practice, and common solutions after three years of the SMCR.
• Hear from Senior Managers and individuals responsible for implementing the regime who will talk about the challenges and opportunities that the SMCR has presented, the impact on their roles, and • • • The implications of some of the key findings of the survey.
• Discuss the practical considerations for embedding SMCR and creating a dynamic interaction between governance, organisational culture, and conduct.
• Consider the regulators’ perspective and industry recommendations for improvements or joint industry action given the results of the survey.
• Copies of the SMCR Survey Report will be available to members on the day and will provide the first industry review on the effectiveness of the SMCR. The event will act as an advisory and benchmarking session for both members and those now in scope.
