ACCP Course for Compliance Officers – Update:

Remember the course for compliance officers that the ACCP was working on – trying to get someone to develop and launch? Well here it is! The IFSE Institute has announced a new course offering developed specifically for Mutual Fund Dealer compliance professionals and it is contemplated by NI 31-103!  It provides students with a broad understanding of the rules and regulations in the financial services industry; students learn about the role of compliance and how to encourage a culture of compliance within their firm. To register go to www.ifse.ca or call IFSE at 1-888-865-2437.

TIPS:

“How to Make Decisions”

1. People make very different decisions when they focus on the losses – emphasize the positive!

2. Don’t just make a pro and con list - add a rating system.

3. Sometimes agonizing over two options won’t get you anywhere – be creative – you might find a better option you weren’t originally considering.

4. Sometimes the decision just isn’t worth agonizing over – don’t be afraid to flip a coin every now and again.

5. Incorporate long-term bigger picture thinking by asking what would your 75-year-old self do?
