No 8, Report of the Advisory Scientific Committee from European Systemic Risk Board

Abstract: Regulatory action in response to the global financial crisis, together with broader developments in finance and society, have materially expanded regulation in the financial sector. While there is a general consensus on the need for regulation, there is much less agreement on whether recent increases in the complexity of regulation are necessary and appropriate. As a result, we are seeing a strong pushback from the financial industry, which is arguing that overly complex regulation has led to financial institutions becoming overburdened, hampering their ability to provide financial services efficiently.
