Webinar: A smarter ring-fencing regime

A key plank of the UK’s response to the global financial crisis, the UK bank ring-fencing regime came into force in 2019. Following a review of the regime in 2021 chaired by Keith Skeoch, HM Treasury announced as part of the ‘Edinburgh Reforms’ a commitment to reform the ring-fencing regime in response to the review’s findings and a call for evidence. This September, HMT published its consultation on near-term reforms and a summary of responses to the call for evidence.
