Being technically right isn't enough when decisions are made in rooms where influence matters more than expertise

The situation this course is for

Compliance professionals often have the correct answer, but lack the leverage to make it stick in cross-functional debates. In high-stakes MiFID II discussions, being consulted last or deferred to only after escalation limits impact. The gap isn’t knowledge, it’s positioning.

Who this is for

Senior compliance or governance practitioner in asset management or custody banking, regularly consulted on MiFID II but not consistently invited to shape initial decisions

Who this is not for

Entry-level analysts, auditors focused on checklists, or professionals outside financial services regulation

What you walk away with

  • Standing invitation to pre-implementation design sessions on new trading platforms
  • First call when stakeholders debate best execution documentation
  • Trusted reference point for legal and compliance peers on inducements policy interpretation
  • Decision-ready templates for common MiFID II conflict scenarios
  • Documented rationale library that strengthens consistency across teams
