Issues and trends within the financial services industry
- Independent Commission on Banking
In its final report, published on 12 September 2011, the Independent Commission on Banking proposed radical changes to the way banks authorised in the UK structure themselves and manage their retail banking activities. - Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA)
From 1 January 2013, the US Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) will require foreign financial institutions (FFIs) that enter into an agreement with the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to identify their US account holders and report them annually to the IRS. - Retail Distribution Review
The Retail Distribution Review (RDR) is central to the FSA’s agenda of customer protection. It aims to drive structural change throughout the retail investments industry, in order to give consumers confidence that the advice they are given, and products they use, are best suited to their needs. - Mergers & acquisitions
Over the last year, financial services organisations have been placed under unprecedented pressure, creating a situation where restructuring has become a critical issue. - Financial Crime
Reducing financial crime is a key priority for regulators, authorities and governments globally. Over the last few years we have seen regulators such as the Financial Services Authority (FSA) take a tougher stance with financial institutions for breach of financial crime regulations.
