CDOIF Outputs

– Does not provide detailed technical analysis

» Provides industry and the CA with a clear, unambiguous and simple overview of the

topic

» Helps to promote the ‘intelligent customer’ role of the duty holder

» Where necessary, helps in dialogue with specialist practitioners – know what questions

to ask, and how to review outputs

– Detailed technical guidance may still ne needed

» CDOIF may be the pre-cursor for developing more detailed work through other industry

bodies or institutions

CDOIF guidance represents a shared, clear and

agreed

view of how to address a

specific topic by both industry and the UK regulator
