Article summary

HM Treasury has published the Financial Services and Markets Bill (FSMB), along with feedback on its consultations on the Future Regulatory Framework (FRF) Review and FRF Review: central counterparties and central securities depositories and the first Mansion House speech by the new chancellor of the exchequer, Nadhim Zahawi. In his speech, Zahawi noted that the FSMB aims to tailor financial services regulation to UK markets and create a more competitive financial services sector in the UK post-Brexit. He also said it implements the FRF Review, including reforms to Solvency II and the prospectus regime and the Wholesale Capital Markets review. It also, amongst other things, enables the UK government to ‘safely adopt cryptoassets’ and introduces growth and competitiveness as formal ‘secondary’ objectives of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA).

Jurisdiction(s): England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales
