Effective management requires more than just policy
Why this matters
AFM's SREP Market Overview 2025 provides regulatory guidance on implementation gaps in internal controls, IT risk management, and governance. This is informational content highlighting supervisory expectations rather than announcing new rules. The focus on operational resilience, cyber risk management, and role clarity applies broadly across investment firms and trading platforms, with particular relevance to asset managers and broker dealers.

What the AFM said
In its SREP Market Overview 2025, the AFM notes that many firms have their foundations in order, but that implementation is lagging behind. Internal control and IT risks, in particular, require improvement. The message is clear: ensure that policies are not merely in place, but that they demonstrably work in practice.
