Whistleblowing Directive: concrete impacts and road to compliance
The financial sector is already familiar with whistleblowing.
However, the Whistleblowing Directive is a game changer, both because of its very broad scope (which includes financial services, products and markets) and the requirements it imposes.
To help you find your way through these requirements, the speaker will present a very concrete and pragmatic “road to compliance”.
The objective of the course is for you to:
- leave with a detailed overview of the provisions of the Directive (and its transposition into Belgian law);
- understand the impacts of the Directive (and its transposition into Belgian law) on your institution;
- leave with a very concrete and step-by-step road to compliance.
