Charles Goodhart

Journal of Financial Regulation and Compliance, 2017, vol. 25, issue 3, 236-240

Abstract: Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to provide a provocative and critical introduction and solutions to significant contemporary issues of financial regulation. Design/methodology/approach - The paper is an expert’s review of contemporary issues and challenges in financial regulation. Findings - The paper advocates that contemporary financial regulation challenges are addressed through governance reforms and an enhanced focus on maturity transformation, rather than a focus on just capital and liquidity management. In particular, more emphasis should be given to individual decision-makers within banks rather than institutions. Practical implications - The review paper considers areas where future regulatory reform may be enhanced and redirected. Originality/value - The review provides original and critical perspectives on contemporary regulatory challenges.
