UNIT 1
MODULE 3: GOVERNANCE, REGULATIONS AND ETHICS (cont’d)

Suggested Teaching and Learning Activities

To facilitate students’ attainment of the objectives in this Module, teachers are advised to engage
students in the following teaching and learning activities which may be done separately or merged to
facilitate sequencing and the completion of the SBA task. Teachers should use cooperative grouping
and simulation as often as possible to afford students the opportunity to have authentic and
meaningful experiences.

1. Identify a YouTube video that introduces the concepts of governance, regulations and ethics
and have students view this and have a discussion.

2. Organise a lecture series with the Central Bank or any other relevant financial institution on
the topic of governance, regulations and ethics and its application to financial services.
Preceding the lecture series, students will be provided with a questionnaire with a series of
questions pertaining to the content area of compliance. Students should complete the
questionnaire at the end of the lecture. They should also use the opportunity to pose
questions to the Lecturer.

3. Provide students with newspaper articles and cases related to areas of governance,
regulations and ethics in financial services. More than one person should receive similar
articles and cases. Provide all students with questions to be answered individually after
interacting with the documents received. Have students group themselves and present their
responses to the class.
