About this learning event

At this online course, we will address the audit practices and skills of financial market supervisors. We will predominantly focus on these functions from a governance perspective for financial institutions. We will give guidance and present good practices in supervision as well as the legal basis and supervisory aspects of assessing governance structures. Participants will be working on case studies and peer-to-peer sharing experience from participants working on regulation and supervision of different financial market sectors (banks, insurance companies, pension funds, capital markets) to enhance their understanding of how to ensure effective risk management, internal controls and good functioning of oversight bodies.
