18 FSA Discussion Paper: Private Equity: a discussion of risk and regulatory engagement Bruce Robson Manager, Asset Management Sector Team
19 Agenda Development of the Private Equity Discussion Paper Way forward, update on feedback FSA s supervision of Private Equity firms, including FSA structure FSA s risk-based approach More Principles Based Regulation
20 Development of the Discussion Paper Six reasons why DP published: Significant growth in capital inflows Leverage has increased Extended reach of PE deals Development of a secondary market Shrinking UK equity market Perceived lack of understanding Focus has been on large and mid cap market Reviewed PE market in context of other alternative asset classes
21 Development of the Discussion Paper Aims were: To stimulate debate Clarify our risks to our statutory objectives Inform stakeholders Identify proportionate mitigation Solicit views from stakeholders Overall aim was to ensure the level and form of regulatory engagement is optimal
22 Development of the Discussion Paper Risks identified: Excessive leverage (medium high risk) Unclear ownership of economic risks (medium high risk) Reduction in overall market efficiency (low risk) Market abuse (high risk) Conflicts of interest (high risk) Market access constraints (medium low risk) Market opacity (medium low risk) Summary is our current regulatory architecture is effective, proportionate and adequately resourced, but also established an alternatives centre of expertise Proactive market surveillance of credit markets
23 Way forward Feedback still open until 6 March please contribute Feedback statement likely in Q2/07 Possible Consultation Paper (with full MFA and CBA) if policy changes (e.g. new rules) are needed Feedback to date has been limited only one formal response so far Oral feedback
24 FSA structure
25 FSA s supervisory approach Centre of expertise in alternatives Relationship manage hedge fund managers (25 groups) and private equity firms (14 groups) Firms not funds senior management responsibility Top-down systems and controls Higher impact: more frequent risk assessments Lower impact: case work and review of returns All firms: thematic work, particularly for nonrelationship managed firms Compliance standards in early 2005 Financial crime review in late 2005
26 Probability assessment Probability in firms is assessed against 9 risk groups and capital: Environmental Environmental risks Business Model Customers, Products Markets Business Process Prudential MH & Controls Customer, Product & Market Controls Financial & Operating Controls Prudential Risk Controls MH- MH- Capital ML- MH- ML H H- ML Risk Management Control Functions Oversight & Governance Management, Governance and Culture Mitigants Net Risks Customer Treatment & Market Conduct Operating H H Financial Soundness H Business Risks Controls Oversight & Governance Total MH- ML+ H- H
27 More Principles Based Regulation More and rebalance (8,500 pages of rules v 11 principles) Implications for firms continuing/enhancing reliance on senior management more attention to outcomes less prescription, more responsibility & opportunity more interesting/difficult judgements Implications for consumers better outcomes, fairer deals, continued market confidence Implications for the FSA move away from box-ticking discussions on broad issues rather than demonstration of compliance with rules conscious of retrospective vision consistent judgements
