Compliance Risk Management in Switzerland: A Must-Have for Financial Institutions

======================================================

Switzerland’s financial market legislation is undergoing a major overhaul to align with European standards. The Financial Services Act (FinSA) and the Financial Institutions Act (FinIA) have been passed by parliament, introducing new regulations that require independent asset managers to establish an effective compliance and risk management function.
