As a major international financial centre the UK is very much at the centre of the debate and has a particular interest in the ultimate outcome.The financial crisis has exposed the weaknesses of ‘light-touch’ regulation and ‘principles-based’ regulation, which characterised the UK system in the pre-crisis phase.

This article reviews and assesses recent and proposed regulatory changes and considers the relationship between corporate governance and regulation. It evaluates the impact on the UK system of initiatives undertaken at the international and EU levels as well as various interests and incentives |
