The Prudential Regulation Authority’s supervisory statement (SS1/23) on model risk management principles for banks is due to take effect from 17 May 2024. Given that the statement was released in May 2023, banks have had some time to digest it, however careful consideration will be required to ensure that banks’ model risk governance, controls, policies, processes, and reporting meet the PRA’s expectations.
In this episode of Regulated Radio, Rod Hardcastle is joined by Deloitte Partner Ian Wilson to discuss the five key principles of SS1/23, the associated challenges banks face and how banks can minimise the costs of meeting these new expectations.

The transition towards Net Zero and the adoption of other Environmental, Social and Governance, or ESG standards, is leading to a massive expansion of regulatory scrutiny and activity in the marketplace. This relatively new area of regulation is challenging many firms to keep up with the pace of change.

In this episode of Regulated Radio, Scott Martin is joined by Deloitte’s EMEA Sustainability Regulation Hub experts, Magda Puzniak-Holford and Ramon Bravo Gonzalez, to discuss how sustainability is changing the way companies operate, how regulators are expanding their activity in this area, and what this means for firms across different sectors.

The global banking sector has experienced a period of instability this year. Starting in March, a string of bank failures in the United States and Europe created uncertainty in the market and raised doubts about what would happen next. 
In this episode of Regulated Radio, Scott Martin is joined by Deloitte’s Centre for Regulatory Strategy Leads, David Strachan and Irena Gecas-McCarthy, to discuss the period of banking sector stress seen earlier this year, the immediate supervisory response to it, and the regulatory changes we may see emerge in its aftermath.

In recent years, the easy availability of sustainable funds in the retail markets and the increasing amount of money flowing into these funds have made greenwashing a hot topic in the investment management sector.

In this episode of Regulated Radio, Scott Martin is joined by Deloitte’s ESG in investment management experts Jessica Hodges and Stuart Royden-Turner to discuss the key greenwashing challenges facing the industry at the moment, and in particular the role of ESG data in this story.
