This book was released on 2014 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theory suggests that the primary role of financial institutions and capital markets is to facilitate the allocation of resources in an uncertain environment across space and time.Therefore regulation of the financial sector has a crucial role to play, especially in the development of third world countries, most of whom have enormous wealth disparities between sections of their populace. A key objective of regulation is to redress information asymmetries that sometimes exist in financial services businesses usually to the disfavour of the consumer. Although most often the regulator is also the supervisor, the role of the regulator and that of the supervisor are. In most jurisdictions however, the powers to regulate and to supervise the activities of the financial services sector reside in the same institution. The regulatory framework of financial services often comprises primary regulation, secondary legislation and guidance and (policy) directives and directions issued by the regulator. This paper looks at the rationale for regulation, the different models of regulation in the financial services and what they are aimed to achieve. The paper also looks at the broad objectives of regulation even in the absence of a unified theory of financial service regulation, such as investor protection, ensuring fairness, reducing contagion, protection against malpractices and maintaining consumer confidence.The paper also analyses the pros and cons of single, twin-peaks and multiple financial regulator and why regulators need to be independent [but accountable] whilst at the same time avoiding industry capture.Although the paper discussed regulation broadly, it discusses financial services regulation in the context of the Malaŵian financial regulatory framework with a brief overview of the regulatory models in the United Kingdom and Zambia.
Book Synopsis Institutional Structure of Financial Regulation by : Robin Hui Huang
Download or read book Institutional Structure of Financial Regulation written by Robin Hui Huang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In light of on-going global financial crises, the institutional structure of financial regulation is currently a subject of significant academic and practical interest. The financial crisis has called into question the adequacy of financial regulation at the national and supranational levels, and has instigated financial regulatory reforms in major markets overseas. This has included the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act in the US, and the programme to split the Financial Services Authority in the UK. This book examines the institutional structure reform of financial regulation from a comparative perspective, exploring both fundamental theories and international experiences. The book explores the three main institutional structures of financial regulation in the world; the sectors-based model, adopted in the US, Mainland China and Hong Kong; the twin-peaks model with Australia and the Netherlands as its pioneers; and the single-regulator model as represented by the former Financial Services Authority in the UK and the Financial Services Agency in Japan. The book contains contributions from renowned experts in the field of financial regulation including Douglas Arner, Jeffrey Carmichael, Robin Hui Huang, Dirk Schoenmaker, and Michael Taylor, and will be of interest to students and researchers of banking and finance law, and comparative economics.

Book Synopsis Should Financial Sector Regulators Be Independent? by : Mr.Marc Quintyn
Download or read book Should Financial Sector Regulators Be Independent? written by Mr.Marc Quintyn and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2004-03-08 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In nearly every major financial crisis of the past decade-from East Asia to Russia, Turkey, and Latin America-political interference in financial sector regulation helped make a bad situation worse. Political pressures not only weakened financial regulation, but also hindered regulators and supervisors from taking action against troubled banks. This paper investigates why, to fulfill their mandate to preserve financial sector stability, financial sector regulators and supervisors need to be independent-from the financial services industry as well as from the government-as well as accountable.
Book Synopsis Revisiting the Rationale for a Single National Financial Services Regulator by : Clive Briault
Download or read book Revisiting the Rationale for a Single National Financial Services Regulator written by Clive Briault and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an earlier paper (Briault, 1999) I put forward the case for a single national financial services regulator. Such a regulator, covering a broad range of financial services activities and spanning both prudential and conduct of business regulation, should be well placed to deliver effective, efficient and properly differentiated regulation in the current financial environment in the UK. That paper described the formation of the UK Financial Services Authority (FSA) and similar developments in other countries. It also discussed the factors which supported the creation of an integrated financial services regulator and commented on the relationship between a single regulator and a central bank.So why revisit this case now? The purpose of this paper 1 is not simply to repeat the arguments set out in the earlier paper, but to review developments over the last three and a half years in the UK in an attempt to measure the performance of the FSA against the rationale for creating it in the first place. The FSA has gained some useful experience over this period from which to begin to draw some tentative conclusions about the success or otherwise of a single financial services regulator in the UK, even if these conclusions must be subject to qualifications at this stage. And although the FSA has been acting in most respects as a single regulator for the last three and a half years (see Briault, 1999, page 7), it only came fully into existence at midnight on 30 November 2001, when the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA) came into force. The quot;alphabet soupquot; of the previous regulatory bodies, as Michael Taylor once described them (Taylor, 1995, page 7), has finally disappeared.

Book Synopsis The Rationale for a Single National Financial Services Regulator by : Clive Bruilt
Download or read book The Rationale for a Single National Financial Services Regulator written by Clive Bruilt and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The single statutory regulator for financial services which is being established in the UK (the Financial Services Authority, quot;FSAquot;) will be the broadest financial regulator in the world, combining prudential, conduct of business and market conduct regulation across the full range of financial services, including banking, securities, investment management and insurance. A few other countries already have single financial services regulators, but the FSA will be the first in a major international financial centre.This paper considers the rationale for establishing a single national financial services regulator. The institutional structure of financial services regulation is important because of the impact of the efficiency and effectiveness of this regulation on the direct and indirect costs of regulation and on the success of regulation in meeting its statutory objectives. To what extent should the structure of financial regulation be driven by the functions which financial services firms undertake, reflecting market developments in the financial services industry? Is there a first-best institutional arrangement which is independent of these market developments, arising perhaps from economies of scale and scope in undertaking financial regulation, or from some underlying logic linking the structure of regulation with the objectives of regulation or with the institutional arrangements for monetary policy and for addressing systemic risk? Are there also implications here for the structure of regulation internationally, not just within national borders?Although the structure of financial regulation must depend in part on what is being regulated and why it is being regulated, this paper takes as given the rationale for financial services regulation as set out in Davies (1998a), Goodhart et al (1998) and Llewellyn (1999). This is not to deny the crucial importance of determining the rationale for intervention - and indeed the key interrelationships between this rationale and the choice of the tools of supervision - but this is too large a subject to cover within this paper.

Book Synopsis The Regulatory Responses to the Global Financial Crisis by : Mr.Stijn Claessens

This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We identify current challenges for creating stable, yet efficient financial systems using lessons from recent and past crises. Reforms need to start from three tenets: adopting a system-wide perspective explicitly aimed at addressing market failures; understanding and incorporating into regulations agents’ incentives so as to align them better with societies’ goals; and acknowledging that risks of crises will always remain, in part due to (unknown) unknowns – be they tipping points, fault lines, or spillovers. Corresponding to these three tenets, specific areas for further reforms are identified. Policy makers need to resist, however, fine-tuning regulations: a “do not harm” approach is often preferable. And as risks will remain, crisis management needs to be made an integral part of system design, not relegated to improvisation after the fact.
Book Synopsis A new approach to financial regulation by : Great Britain. Treasury
Download or read book A new approach to financial regulation written by Great Britain. Treasury and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-07-26 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document outlines the Government's programme of reform to renew the UK's system of financial regulation. It believes that weaknesses were inherent in the tripartite approach whereby three authorities - the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority and the Treasury - were collectively responsible for financial stability. The Government will create a new Financial Policy Committee (FPC) in the Bank of England with primary statutory duty to maintain financial stability. The FPC will be given control of macro-prudential tools to ensure that systemic risks to financial stability are dealt with. This macro-prudential regulation must be co-ordinated with the prudential regulation of individual firms. Operational responsibility for prudential regulation will transfer from the FSA to a new subsidiary of the Bank of England, the Prudential Regulation Authority. The third development is the creation of a dedicated Consumer Protection and Markets Authority (CPMA) with a primary statutory responsibility to promote confidence in financial services and markets. Protection of consumers will be delivered though a strong consumer division within CPMA. The document also covers: the issue of market regulation; co-ordination of the regulatory bodies in a potential crisis; the next steps, including public consultation, legislative passage and operational implementation. The Government will, after considering responses, produce more detailed proposals - including draft legislation - for further consultation in early 2011, with a view to having legislation on the statute book within two years.

Book Synopsis Powering the Digital Economy: Opportunities and Risks of Artificial Intelligence in Finance by : El Bachir Boukherouaa
Download or read book Powering the Digital Economy: Opportunities and Risks of Artificial Intelligence in Finance written by El Bachir Boukherouaa and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses the impact of the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the financial sector. It highlights the benefits these technologies bring in terms of financial deepening and efficiency, while raising concerns about its potential in widening the digital divide between advanced and developing economies. The paper advances the discussion on the impact of this technology by distilling and categorizing the unique risks that it could pose to the integrity and stability of the financial system, policy challenges, and potential regulatory approaches. The evolving nature of this technology and its application in finance means that the full extent of its strengths and weaknesses is yet to be fully understood. Given the risk of unexpected pitfalls, countries will need to strengthen prudential oversight.
