英国金融监管机构周四提出进一步放宽对金融公司员工审查的规则,旨在减轻监管负担并促进经济增长。
高级管理人员与认证制度(Senior Managers and Certification Regime)在十年前、2008年金融危机后推出,旨在让受监管金融公司的高级决策者承担责任。金融行为监管局和英格兰银行的审慎监管局现在提议取消对约13.9万名高级管理层以下员工的年度认证检查,并将对高级职位的监管批准改为通知制。监管机构表示,首席执行官、财务主管和董事长仍需在就任前获得监管批准,相关提案已启动咨询,最终政策预计在2027年出台。
Britain's financial regulators on Thursday proposed further easing of rules on vetting employees at finance firms, aiming to reduce regulatory burden and boost economic growth.
英格兰银行称,这些变化预计将在十年内为企业节约约20亿英镑(约合26.8亿美元)的成本。
监管机构在四月份已放宽部分规则,以简化高级管理人员的问责制,这是政府主导的削减繁文缛节的更广泛举措的一部分。作为最新提案的一部分,监管机构还提高了对大多数高级管理层以下员工报告行为规则违规的门槛,称这将使企业能够更好地针对更严重的不当行为。
The Senior Managers and Certification Regime was introduced a decade ago, after the 2008 financial crisis, to hold senior decision-makers accountable in regulated finance firms The Financial Conduct Authority and the Bank of England's Prudential Regulation Authority are now proposing to scrap annual certification checks on about 139,000 employees below senior management level and replace regulatory approval with notification for senior roles Chief executives, finance chiefs and chairs would still need regulatory approval before taking up their posts, the regulators said, launching consultations on the proposals, with final policy expected in 2027 The Bank of England said the changes are expected to save firms around £2 billion ($2.68 billion) over a 10-year period The regulators had in April already eased some rules to streamline senior manager accountability, as part of a broader government-led push to cut red tape As part of the latest proposal, the regulators are also raising the threshold on reporting conduct rule breaches for most staff below senior manager level, saying it would let the firms better target more serious misconduct
