Highlights

• Culture remains central to how we supervise the firms we regulate. The importance of an authentic, embedded purpose, visible leadership and an inclusive environment where staff feel safe to speak up is paramount.
• Hybrid working brings opportunities and challenges. Firms need to find approaches that give due regard to safeguarding their purpose and values, the wellbeing of staff and effective oversight.
• Diversity and Inclusion is an aspect of culture where the investment management sector has considerable ground to make up. We welcome the initiatives led by the IA but lasting change will only come from firms looking at their own culture and taking action.
