Administrative / biographical background: |
The Financial Services Authority (FSA) was an independent non-governmental body that regulated the financial services industry in the UK. It was given statutory powers by the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and established in December 2001. The FSA was a company limited by guarantee and financed by the financial services industry. Its board was appointed by the Treasury. On 19 December 2012, the Financial Services Act 2012 received royal assent, abolishing the FSA with effect from 1 April 2013. The FSA's responsibilities were then split between two new agencies (the Prudential Regulation Authority; and the Financial Conduct Authority) and the Bank of England. |
