The UK continues its push towards promoting the government’s growth objectives with the FCA’s recent Dear CEO letter to asset management and alternatives firms. The letter sets out the regulator’s expectations around good governance and senior accountability, highlighting to business leaders the need to ensure their strategies are fit for purpose.

In this webinar, we tackled the topics raised in the letter and what you should be doing in response to the letter. We also took a closer look at conflicts of interest and the private asset valuation review findings and actions firms need to take.
