Program Overview: What is DNB and AFM Financial Regulatory Compliance (Netherlands)?
DNB & AFM Financial Regulatory Compliance (Netherlands) is a program for compliance officers, risk teams, and financial institutions operating under Dutch supervision. It covers Dutch supervision foundations with DNB and AFM, AFM conduct supervision in practice, DNB prudential compliance operations, financial integrity including AML, sanctions, and DORA, and handling supervisory inquiries and remediation. Participants learn to operate confidently under both supervisors.
Training runs as instructor-led sessions across 24 hours, blending regulatory teaching with compliance operations labs. Participants work through conduct and prudential scenarios, map AML and sanctions controls, and practice responding to supervisory inquiries. Instructors with Dutch financial regulatory experience review every exercise across the practice sessions. The program closes with the End-to-End Compliance Review capstone, a full review each team conducts for a realistic institution profile.
Dutch supervision is unforgiving of box-ticking: DNB and AFM expect firms to demonstrate real control, not binders of policies. Conduct failures and prudential gaps surface in thematic reviews, and remediation under a supervisory microscope is expensive. This program teaches compliance teams to build supervision-ready operations that hold up when the regulator walks in.
The capstone is the End-to-End Compliance Review: a full compliance review of a realistic institution profile, covering conduct and prudential posture, financial integrity controls, and a remediation plan for the gaps found. Your team returns with a review methodology they can run on their own institution, and the confidence to face supervisory scrutiny.
Six modules and 24 hours: Dutch supervision foundations, AFM conduct rules, DNB prudential operations, AML and integrity supervision, supervisory inquiry handling, and a capstone compliance review. Every module pairs concepts with a guided lab, so each technique is practiced. It closes with a capstone review the team scopes, tests, and presents.
Delivery is hybrid across virtual and onsite sessions, scheduled around your calendar. Cohorts train as one group or split into batches, with session materials and lab guides included for every participant.

Navigate Dutch Financial Supervision With Clear Controls and Supported Responses
Edstellar develops Dutch financial compliance practice by distinguishing DNB and AFM responsibilities and connecting them to conduct, prudential operations, and financial integrity. Teams review fictional institutional cases and prepare supervisory response materials. The final compliance review evaluates obligation mapping, evidence quality, and remediation ownership rather than implying acceptance by either supervisor.
- Step 01
Consult
We examine licence and product responsibilities to identify gaps in DNB and AFM remit mapping, conduct disclosures, prudential reporting, integrity controls, and inquiry responses.
- Step 02
Plan
We distinguish supervisory roles before conduct and prudential exercises, then examine AML, sanctions, and operational-resilience topics before preparing a simulated inquiry response and compliance review.
- Step 03
Align
We align Dutch-supervision facilitation with compliance, risk, legal, and audit teams, introducing the framework and matching case depth to licences and prior regulatory experience.
- Step 04
Customize
We tailor fictional institution profiles, product disclosures, CDD records, and inquiry notices to relevant activities while excluding customer information and confidential supervisory correspondence.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants review disclosures, prepare reporting schedules, examine monitoring cases, and assemble response packs, receiving feedback on control rationale, evidence references, and remediation sequencing.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the compliance review for accurate supervisory mapping, well-supported findings, coherent inquiry responses, and clear owners and timelines for unresolved control gaps.
