The Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) are the primary institutions overseeing UK banking regulations. These bodies ensure the stability and integrity of the financial system through various regulatory measures.
Two cornerstone pieces of legislation govern UK banks: the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA) and the Banking Act 2009. The FSMA sets out the regulatory environment for financial services in the UK, including the roles and responsibilities of financial regulators. The Banking Act 2009 is crucial for maintaining financial stability, particularly focusing on issues related to bank insolvency and crisis management (LegislationGovUK).
Following Brexit, the UK has been aligning its regulatory framework to retain autonomy and maintain its global financial competitiveness. This includes adapting EU laws into UK legislation, a process known as ‘onshoring’.
The Financial Services and Markets Act 2023, for example, reflects significant reforms to adapt the UK’s financial regulatory environment post-Brexit. It focuses on enhancing the UK’s regulatory framework to ensure it is equipped to respond to new challenges and opportunities independently from EU regulations.
These regulatory bodies and legal frameworks collectively help safeguard the banking sector, ensuring it operates efficiently and securely within the broader economic system of the UK. Understanding these regulations is crucial for anyone engaged with the UK banking sector.
