Independent panels consider evidence and determine disciplinary cases relating to the conduct of a member of the IFoA. IFoA Boards and committees, including the IFoA Council, cannot influence this decision-making process.
The independence and integrity of this system is overseen by the IFoA Regulatory Board's Disciplinary Committee and by the UK's Financial Reporting Council. These oversight bodies ensure that the operation of the process follows natural justice and principles of good regulation
