Course Outline & Objectives
The Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation (MiFIR) Transaction Reporting regime is fundamental to supporting the Market Abuse Regime and the effort to maintain integrity in European markets, As such, it is a priority for the European regulators, including the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Regulators expect the Board and Senior Managers of financial insitutions to have ensured they have effective policies, procedures and processes in place to satisfy the new transaction reporting requirements.
This focused workshop will provide an opportunity for firms to review their implementation of the new rules and address the ongoing operational oversight and compliance challenges under the new regime.
