This course will provide a detailed introduction to the role of the Financial Regulator and how financial services are regulated in Ireland. This course is designed to enable people working in financial services to understand the European regulatory framework, how it fits with domestic regulations and  your business is affected. The course looks across various industry sectors and highlights the common themes and likely future developments as well as giving practical guidance on current requirements.

 

Regulation: Keeping financial services firms on the straight and narrow.European regulation now underpins the majority of Irish financial services legislation. Recent initiatives such as MiFID, the Reinsurance Directive and the Prospectus Directive have provided significant opportunities for export-led business. Forthcoming major initiatives such as Solvency II and the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive will also have significant implications for the way business is conducted and is regulated. The Financial Regulator itself is facing a period of major institutional change and continues to enforce significant domestic regulations such as the Consumer Protection Code and Client Asset Requirements.
