Conduct Risk – What Corporates Can Learn From The Financial SectorEversheds Sutherland
Over the last few years the financial services industry has wrestled with the impact of poor conduct. Fines and penalties have soared, franchises have been damaged and the legal and regulatory burden has forced a complete rewriting of business models. As a result there has been a sharpened focus from both a regulatory and governance perspective on “conduct risk” – the pro-active management of anything in which an institution might engage which could impact on customer outcomes, or market integrity. We look into what corporates in other sectors can learn from financial institutions in terms of compliance, culture, governance and ”conduct risk”.

All over the world, small loans to invididuals and very small business are increasingly made using digital channels, whether online, via a mobile devide or through an agent. However, trust, confidence and responsible lending practices need to be in place to ensure this industry is successful and its customers are protected and empowered.
In Responsible Digital Credit, CFI Fellow John Owens outlines the digital credit landscape and the risks customers face, and examines the best practices, standards and initiatives that exist or should be implemented to improve consumer protection in digital lending. Ultimately, John argues, it will take a village to ensure that digital credit clients are protected—including govenrment, regulators, industry players, advocates and consumers themselves. He sees three key activities: 1) industry self-regulation, 2) certification of digital credit providers, and 3) directly empowering consumers, as key to the future of what responsible digital credit looks like.
