The formation of the Surveillance Leaders’ Network (SLN) was requested in 2018 by a group of Managing Directors running market abuse surveillance functions at leading banks. Its objective is to provide regular off-the-record meetings for regional and global heads of surveillance in order to benchmark against each other, learn, network and determine best practice.

What is it?

The Surveillance Leaders’ Network (SLN) is a private, invitation-only series of meetings - for (10-20) senior decision-makers to discuss the most pressing market abuse surveillance challenges.
The SLN is underpinned by a group of Founding Members who are senior Managing Directors running a global surveillance function at leading banks.

Who is it for?

Global and regional heads of surveillance and compliance
Managing Director or head of function level only
