A Regulatory Perspective: The Drivers Of Culture And The Role Of Purpose And Governance - Speech By Marc Teasdale, Director Of Wholesale Supervision – Supervision Investment, Wholesale & Specialists Division (SIWS), Delivered At The Investment Association, Culture In Investment Management Forum

Date 18/09/2020

Highlights

• Our regulatory interventions in the asset management sector, such as the Asset Market Management Study remedies, and our continuing work on governance and conflicts of interest, are intended to more closely align the sector with its essential purpose of protecting and growing the capital and income of its customers over the long term. Firms should view the value assessment in particular as an exercise in purpose rather than simply an exercise in regulatory compliance.
• Firms with healthy cultures demonstrate strong governance that supports the daily delivery of their essential purpose. This is particularly true of the assessment management sector, where strong governance is needed to appropriately address the conflicts of interest which, if unaddressed, have the potential to cause significant harm to investors.
• A meaningful focus on diversity and inclusion is essential both for strong governance, and to ensure that firms deliver on their purpose for all sections of society.
