Mads Hannibal

Partner, Head of FS Regulatory Authorisations and Prudential

Financial Services

Executive summary

I am an advisory Partner in our Financial Services Advisory practice. I bring more than two decades of regulatory experience, gained first as a regulator and subsequently as an advisor; first with KPMG where I spent nearly 11 years prior to joining BDO in April 2022.

I lead our Prudential and Authorisations Team, which brings together a multi-disciplinary group of Subject Matter Experts who deliver flexible and tailor support for our clients.

I work with both PRA and FCA regulated firms across different sectors and at all stages of maturity from start-ups and high growth firms to mature regulated businesses.

In addition to supporting clients obtaining (or change existing) regulatory licences, the team and I offer support and advice on the application of Prudential Regulations (including C-SREP/L-SREP preparation), Governance & Culture, SM&CR compliance as well as on a range of matters related to Risk Management arrangements more broadly.

Ask me about regulatory authorisations, prudential regulation, IFPR, governance reviews, s.166, SMF interviews, challenger banks and risk frameworks.
