FSR Brief EP5: Financial services and the growth agenda – a sword and shield

As part of Government's relentless drive to grow the economy, regulators have been challenged on how they can support the growth agenda. In Episode 5 of the FSR Brief, Jon Ford and Michael Tan are joined by Jenny Stainsby and Tim Parkes to discuss how this is playing out in Financial Services, and how regulators are responding. At the same time as going "God on Growth", the FCA has fired up the debate about where the balance should lie between consumer protection and risk taking, and where the "sweet spot" lies between over and under regulating.
