In this session David explores:

  • Why the current approach by the UK FCA to non-financial misconduct is a subset of a much wider topic
  • An explanation of the wider drivers of behaviour and the Fundamental Attribution Error
  • Insight into why training and communications often fails, and the importance of understanding how people behave when faced with a dilemma
  • Why processes, procedures, rules and regulations are often ignored, and the dangers of sludge and friction
  • The importance of understanding culture and behaviour within an organization as a “complex” system
  • Why the advance of AI will increase the need for behaviourally informed approaches
  • Other context on key challenges, opportunities and approaches
