Conflicts non-mandatory resource material
The IFoA has produced a suite of material to assist members in assessing and managing conflicts of interest which may arise in their working lives.
The IFoA is conscious of the fact that conflicts of interest can be a difficult area. Accordingly, we have produced some non-mandatory resource material directed specifically at conflicts of interest to assist members with this ethical issue. This material can be found below. Members are also encouraged to contact the Professional Support Service if you have queries about conflicts of interest.
