MiFID Product Governance: From design to distribution with Value for Money
MiFID product governance ensures that financial products are designed, approved, and distributed in a way that serves the best interests of the target clients. It requires financial institutions to implement robust processes throughout the product lifecycle, with clear roles for product development, compliance, risk, and distribution teams.
This training equips professionals with the knowledge and tools to ensure MiFID-compliant product governance throughout the product lifecycle - from design to distribution - while embedding value for money principles.
The objectives of this training are to:
- gain a thorough understanding of the MiFID product approval process, both in theory and in practice;
- understand the roles and responsibilities of various stakeholders throughout the product lifecycle;
- learn how to apply value for money principles effectively using real-world examples.
