A Senior Management Regime is a regulatory framework that holds senior executives personally accountable for the conduct and compliance of their financial institutions. This regime clearly delineates responsibilities for key management functions, ensuring that individuals at the highest levels are answerable for preventing misconduct and maintaining sound operational controls. It aims to foster a culture of individual accountability and robust governance within regulated entities. The framework applies to a broad range of financial services, extending oversight to decision-makers.
