Financial regulation in Canada operates within a unique, multi-layered and rapidly changing legal, political and cultural landscape.

Join an exclusive cohort of financial regulators and get the up-to-date and critical framework and tools you need to strategically identify problems and evaluate solutions to enhance your ability to make more-informed decisions.

While regulation is carefully layered within specific jurisdictional boundaries and discreet mandates, there is a growing need for financial regulators to focus on regulation within the Canadian financial system as a whole in order to better address the increased complexities and the interconnectedness with global events, rapidly changing technology and shifting market, political and public expectations.

Designed by and for financial regulators, this practical OsgoodePD certificate features blended learning, case studies and group discussion to enhance your experience. You will delve into a functional examination of the Canadian legal, administrative, political and cultural framework in order to better evaluate how to optimize regulatory approaches and tools, achieve outcome-based solutions and define regulatory success on a more multi-faceted and holistic level.

You will have the opportunity to engage with leading regulatory and scholarly authorities and experts, as well as your peers from other financial services regulatory bodies across Canada. You will emerge equipped with an improved ability to analyze and prioritize problems, solutions and outcomes from a broader financial regulation perspective and to better navigate complex issues and challenges and adapt to rapidly changing technology and the future of regulation.

Registration includes 30-day unlimited, online access to the recorded program.
