Regulation Edition – Winter 2018
The Other End of the Telescope: Brexit beyond the UK
Introduction
As one of this edition’s interviewees comments, regulators are used to managing change, but they also exist to encourage certainty. In the context of Brexit, where the territory is unfamiliar to all, there is precious little of the latter to be found. All too often, these unknowns are viewed only from a UK perspective.
To provide a broader view on some of the potential regulatory impacts of Brexit, we were very pleased to talk to Samantha Barrass, Chief Executive of the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (GFSC) and Garrett Blaney, Chair of Agency for the Co-operation of European Energy Regulators (ACER). Both offer very interesting viewpoints, differing in outlook at times, but ultimately with the shared goal of delivering the best outcome for consumers with consensus and certainty at its core.
