Fit & Proper (suitability) requirements: a road to compliance
In financial institutions, key persons must be fit & proper. Fit and proper requirements are one of the cornerstones of the prudential regime, destined to ensure the integrity of the financial sector. Their application requires the intervention of multiple stakeholders (HR, compliance, etc.) and transparent communication with regulators. Regulated entities often face difficulties when implementing them, and these difficulties have increased as the NBB strengthened the fit & proper requirements at the end of 2022.
The objectives of this training are to:
- understand the “Fit & Proper” requirements;
- know how to apply these requirements in practice;
- equip the participant with a very concrete and step-by-step plan to compliance.
