I’m delighted to confirm arrangements for the AFEP Conference 2019

There is some key information detailed below so please ensure you read this email to enable you to gain access to the Conference and get the most out of the day.

The focus of the Conference will be the work AFEP have been doing with the FCA and the Good Practice Guidance that AFEP has written, ready for when the new regulations come into force on 1st August. The FCA will be speaking during the day and there will also be an overview from FSCom.

The majority of the day will be spent in different interactive Roundtables on each of the areas of Good Practice Guidance.

These Roundtables will provide members with an opportunity to not only input into the Guidance but to understand what preparation they need to make on the key areas – AML, Safeguarding, Conflict of Interest and Customer Interest, Corporate Governance and Customer Communication.

Dentons, Ernst and Young, Baker Mackenzie and Exiger have very kindly supported the Roundtables so you will be interacting with leading industry experts on the Good Practice Guidance.

The Good Practice Guidance will be circulated shortly – you should take the time to read the guidance so you can actively contribute to the discussion. It would also be worthwhile printing copies of the guidance and bringing it with you in case you want to make any notes during the day.
