Book Synopsis Understanding the Financial Conduct Authority by : Ashley Kovas
Download or read book Understanding the Financial Conduct Authority written by Ashley Kovas and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Financial Conduct Authority began its work in April 2013 with a post-crisis mandate to take pre-emptive action against firms. When problems occur, the FCA increasingly takes disciplinary action against individual senior managers as well as against the firm. Most of these cases are tragedies – if the individuals concerned understood the likely outcome they would have behaved differently. This book sets out the psychology of the FCA and covers the ‘hot spots’ that senior management and their compliance officers need to get right. The key to the FCA approach is ‘conduct risk’. This deliberately undefined term includes anything that might cause a problem to the FCA in the achievement of its regulatory mission. The FCA sees the world through the lens of risk; everything, including firms themselves, are assessed on how likely they are to cause the FCA to fail in its role of securing appropriate protection for consumers, enhancing the integrity of the UK financial system and promoting effective competition in the interests of consumers. Conduct risk is about behaviour and the FCA is keen to understand the drivers of human behaviour and how they can use them to bring about the outcomes they wish to see. Firms’ culture is also under the microscope, all the more so since the recent trading incidents where groups of traders colluded across firms to manipulate LIBOR and the foreign exchange markets. A chapter on Culture examines how firms can start work to prepare for the FCA’s increasing engagement on culture. The starting point of course is to understand what culture is.

Book Synopsis Global Financial Regulation by : Howard Davies
Download or read book Global Financial Regulation written by Howard Davies and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As international financial markets have become more complex, so has the regulatory system which oversees them. The Basel Committee is just one of a plethora of international bodies and groupings which now set standards for financial activity around the world, in the interests of protecting savers and investors and maintaining financial stability. These groupings, and their decisions, have a major impact on markets in developed and developing countries, and on competition between financial firms. Yet their workings are shrouded in mystery, and their legitimacy is uncertain. Here, for the first time, two men who have worked within the system describe its origins and development in clear and accessible terms. Howard Davies was the first Chairman of the UK's Financial Services Authority, the single regulator for the whole of Britain's financial sector. David Green was Head of International Policy at the FSA, after spending thirty years in the Bank of England, and has been closely associated with the development of the current European regulatory arrangements. Now with a revised and updated introduction, which catalogues the changes made since the credit crisis erupted, this guide to the international system will be invaluable for regulators, financial market practitioners and for students of the global financial system, wherever they are located. The book shows how the system has been challenged by new financial instruments and by new types of institutions such as hedge funds and private equity. Furthermore, the growth in importance of major developing countries, who were excluded for far too long from the key decision-making for a has led to a major overhaul. The guide is essential reading for all those interested in the development of financial markets and the way they are regulated. The revised version is only available in paperback.
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 The Financial Services Authority by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book The Financial Services Authority written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-04-30 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Audit Office was invited by HM Treasury to review the economy, efficiency and effectiveness with which the FSA has used its resources. The main conclusions cover five main areas: 1) performance management, where the FSA is developing useful tools to manage its performance but needs to enhance its grip on cost information and streamline the Outcomes Performance Report; 2) working with other UK regulators - the FSA has good relationships but should focus on working collaboratively with the Office of Fair Trading; 3) international influence and representation, where it is generally effective but should sharpen its communication to stakeholders; 4) financial crime - combating financial crime has received less attention than other areas of FSA's responsibilities but it has recently restructured to enhance its efforts in this area; 5) financial capability of consumers - the FSA is a world leader in this but it should focus on the costs of low financial capability and develop a medium term strategy.

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 Financial stability and depositor protection by : Bank of England
Download or read book Financial stability and depositor protection written by Bank of England and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008-01-30 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent months have seen a period of sustained turbulence and instability in global financial markets, with financial firms across the world affected. In Britain, the Northern Rock bank experienced a run on its deposits. The Government announced a review of the existing supervisory regime, including complex areas such as the legal framework for dealing with banks facing difficulties. This consultation document sets out the views of the Government, the Financial Services Authority (FSA) and the Bank of England, responding to a discussion paper "Banking reform - protecting depositors" (HM Treasury, October 2007, http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/media/6/3/consult_bankingreform111007.pdf). This paper also takes into consideration the Treasury Committee's report "The run on the Rock" (5th report session 2007-08, HC 56-I, ISBN 9780215038388). The Government proposes to bring forward legislation to address five key objectives: (1) strengthening the financial system - better risk and liquidity management by banks, and improvements in valuation and credit rating agencies; (2) reducing the likelihood of banks failing - strengthening the supervisory framework and changing framework for provision and disclosure of liquidity assistance; (3) reducing the impact of failing banks - a range of tools to resolve a failing bank, including accelerated transfer of business to a healthy bank, a "bridge bank", and a bespoke banking insolvency procedure; (4) effective compensation arrangements in which consumers have confidence - a potential increase to the compensation limit for deposits, changes to enable the Financial Services Compensation Scheme to make payments within one week of a bank failing; (5) strengthening the Bank of England and improving co-ordination between authorities - retaining the tripartite regime, but giving a statutory basis for the Bank of England's financial stability role, and ensuring better governance arrangement within the Bank, and improving international co-ordination regarding financial stability issues and early warnings on global financial risks.

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 281 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.
