FCA speaks on rebalancing risk

Dominic Holland, director of market oversight at the FCA, has spoken on how the FCA is working to rebalance risk to spur growth, but not at the expense of consumer protection. His speech, to corporate treasurers, focussed on the importance of raising capital, but also addressed the current drive to reduce the regulatory reporting burden. He highlighted the FCA’s work on corporate bonds and its plans to align disclosure requirements for low denomination bonds to those for high denomination ones. He said the FCA welcomes all feedback, and especially on making the most of digitisation and other advances in technology.
