Our events have been designed to inform, interest and educate on a wide variety of topics.

Consumer Duty virtual events - 3 part series

Part 1 - Consumer Duty - what does it all mean and how much it fit in with research and suitability processes?

This session will be looking at what the Consumer Duty means for advisers/advisory firms overall, and what else might be needed when it comes to research and suitability. For example, how does it affect any Centralised Investment Proposition (CIP) and Centralised Retirement Proposition (CRP) you have in place?

Part 2 – How can technology help you with Consumer Duty?

This session will focus on how technology can help you meet the new requirements, what’s already available and what further developments and actions might be needed.

In addition, we'll look at our range of tools and calculators and how they can be used to help meet client objectives.

Part 3 – Platforms and servicing – meeting the Consumer Duty requirements

This session will look at the due diligence and governance that needs to be considered when researching a platform or product provider, and what changes may be needed in the future.
