Personal Conflicts of Interest Course
The FCA states that a firm must manage conflicts of interest between itself and its customers or other clients. Firms need to take appropriate steps to identify and manage these conflicts.
A conflict of interest refers to competing interests that interfere with judgement exercised in a relationship. Personal or professional conflicts of interest could prevent services rendered independently or impartially.
Our Personal Conflicts of Interest Course explains how to recognise conflicts of interest that arise and how to manage these to comply with regulations and avoid the appearance of impropriety.
