The law, regulation and ethics involving the use of regulated data in financial services is evolving and regulators are prioritizing focus in this area. You need to be prepared.

Financial services professionals – and their advisors – must be able to comprehend how they are using regulated data and the associated risks in order to meet escalating obligations and risks.

The data analytics landscape is rapidly changing and gaining momentum, and missteps are becoming increasingly costly and burdensome – causing considerable harm to your business and your reputation. At the same time, regulators are prioritizing the need for transparency and “explainability” regarding the use of regulated data in financial services, and new expectations are emerging based on how the laws are being interpreted and applied.

Designed to provide financial services professionals – and their advisors – with crucial knowledge, techniques and best practices needed to get a firm grasp on the evolving risks, challenges and impacts involving the use of regulated data, this first-of-its-kind Osgoode certificate is focused on understanding and navigating the challenges involving the use of data analytics technology in financial services and the intersections with various areas of the law, regulation and ethics.

With a focus on practical strategies and real-world trends, over five modules you will engage with leading practitioners and like-minded professionals to get the latest, best available knowledge and tactics you need to develop suitable frameworks and standards within your organization when using regulated data and to manage the associated evolving risks, challenges and obligations.
