Season 5, Episode 10: Personal Liability

In the tenth and final episode of season 5 of the Compliance Clarified podcast, Susannah Hammond is joined by Helen Chan and Lindsey Rogerson to take another look at personal liability and accountability in financial services. Many jurisdictions have introduced personal accountability regimes in order to drive better risk aware behaviours by senior managers. The practical impact of which was highlighted in our recently published cost of compliance report for 2022 in which nearly half (45%) expected the personal liability of compliance professionals would increase in the coming year. In another stat 56% of respondents thought that the regulatory focus on culture and conduct risk would increase the personal liability of senior managers.
