An ideal combination of distinguished academics and seasoned compliance and regulatory professionals developed the curriculum and teach the classes, enriched by guest speakers from relevant industries. The faculty is supplemented by "subject matter experts" ("SMEs") who add a "real world" perspective to the Center's offerings. The SMEs are drawn from professionals from the Financial Services industry as well as its regulators.
