 Financial Services Authority - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Financial Services Authority (FSA) is an independent non-departmental public body and quasi-judicial body that regulates the financial services industry in the United Kingdom.
In addition to regulating banks, insurance companies and financial advisers, the FSA has regulated mortgage business from 31 October 2004 and general insurance intermediaries from 14 January 2005.
It changed its name to the FSA on 28 October 1997 and now exercises statutory powers given to it by the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, which replaced the earlier legislation and came into force on 1 December 2001.

 Louise Pryor: note on Financial Services Authority
The FSA emphasises that the aim is not a zero-failure regime.
The Financial Services Authority is the single statutory regulator in the UK responsible for regulating deposit-taking, insurance and investment business.
Note that the FSA is interested only in risks to their statutory objectives, and that these may not be the same as, for example, risks to shareholder value.

 Central Bank and Financial Services Authority of Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 2005, IFSRA began referring to itself as the Financial Regulator rather than its full legal title, and encourage banks to include "regulated by the Financial Regulator" in advertisements, rather than the previous, and much parodied, "regulated by the Irish Financial Services Regulatory Authority".
This was as a compromise between those who favoured a fully independent regulator and those who believed the Central Bank should maintain full control of regulation of the financial services industry.
