We are delighted to invite you to our 2025 financial services breakfast briefing, targeted at senior legal, compliance, conduct, culture, HR and risk officers. The principal objective of this event is to provide you with thought-provoking and insightful analysis that draws upon our industry expertise.

In the first part of this session, we will work through a thorny multi-faceted and interactive scenario involving alleged misconduct, conflicts of interest and cultural implications. We will discuss the various issues to be addressed and how they might best be handled in practice – taking into account employment law and regulatory considerations. Topics to be covered will include:

• Whistleblowing investigations - avoiding potential pitfalls
• Handling alleged employee misconduct
• Reconciling legal and regulatory obligations
• Conflicts of interest 
• Institutional culture

Secondly, we will provide an update on some of the latest financial services regulatory developments, themes and trends – including: 

• Proposed new private markets regime (PISCES)
• Conduct and culture – latest insights
• Governance expectations
• DORA and UK CTP Regime - update

Only a limited number of places are available. Chatham House rules will apply and no journalists will be present.
