UK Finance Academy’s Roger Miles and Slaughter and May’s Jan Putnis on navigating regulators’ myriad expectations on culture and the questions lawmakers need to answer on the City’s future

As UK watchdogs continue their drive to stamp out aspects of poor culture within the financial services sector, those tasked with responding to the many ongoing and upcoming regulatory requirements can easily feel overwhelmed.

Today’s guests outline what financial services bosses and board should do to cut through the regulatory noise while still building ethical organisations, as well as the common mistakes they should avoid.

They also detail the regulatory changes they would like to see emerge from the government’s latest package of proposed Brexit reforms and they discuss the questions they would like to see UK lawmakers answer as they seek to map out the City’s future outside of the EU.

Jan Putnis is a partner at law firm Slaughter and May, where he oversees its Financial Regulation Group and co-Heads its Financial Institutions Group.

Roger Miles is a behavioural risk expert with a PhD in the psychology of regulatory design. Since 2016, he has led lobby group UK Finance’s Conduct and Culture Academy as it’s co-founder and faculty leader.
