Labour's record on financial regulation
评估1997年上台的英国工党政府在金融监管方面的成就与失败，特别是应对2007年全球金融危机时的表现，指出监管设计和执行中的明显缺陷以及金融监管固有的困难。
In 1997 the new Labour government launched major initiatives in the area of financial regulation, setting up the Financial Services Authority as a comprehensive regulatory body, supported by the legislative framework of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. We evaluate the Labour government's record on financial regulation in terms of its achievements and failures, especially in dealing with the global financial crisis that started in 2007. While we identify some clear flaws in regulatory design and enforcement, our evaluation highlights some inherent difficulties of financial regulation.
