On April 30, ISDA and the Association for Financial Markets in Europe (AFME) responded to a Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) proposal that would give it the ability to publicly name firms at the start of an investigation and before a decision has been reached on whether to take further action. There has been a considerable reaction to the proposals across the financial services industry, and the response highlights various risks and concerns with the proposals, including the risk to the competitiveness of the UK, damage to shareholder value and reputation of the sector, and worse outcomes for consumers.
