Market abuse training is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the risks, implications, and real-world consequences of market abuse in today’s regulatory environment. Sessions combine technical insight with practical application to ensure long-term value for attendees.

Key areas of focus include:

• A focus on risk in the current environment, including what this is specifically and why it matters (from a market abuse compliance perspective)
• Case study analysis and what we can learn from cases that have directly impacted our industry
• Participants gain the necessary insights required to put everything learned into practice, both during and long after market abuse regulation training

This market abuse course is essential for:

• Investment staff within authorised firms and funds
• CCOs and Compliance staff
• Relevant operations and support staff

MAR was first introduced in July 2016. The FCA continues to fine individuals and high-profile firms in the fund industry for breaches. Along with a focus on increased accountability under the SMCR (Senior Managers and Certification Regime), senior managers must maintain ongoing vigilance regarding risk within their firms.

FCA market abuse sessions at Redcliffe Training explore the subject in depth. Participants examine MAR implications, the obligation for firms to demonstrate staff awareness and compliance and the need to implement appropriate systems and controls. Training ensures comprehensive coverage of all relevant aspects to ensure a thorough understanding of regulatory expectations and best practices.
