A structured series of sessions exploring the risks and opportunities described in the FCA’s Emerging Technology Horizon Scan could assist firms during an away day by facilitating discussion around the legal, regulatory and operational considerations, helping institutions translate the FCA's foresight analysis into actionable strategic and compliance priorities.
