You’ll provide proactive oversight, guidance and strategic challenge to manage both conduct and regulatory risk effectively.

And your unwavering commitment to the fair treatment of customers will directly shape the firm’s operations and ensure the consistent delivery of positive customer outcomes in line with Consumer Duty.
