Ever since the financial crisis of 2008 there has been a seemingly endless stream of new laws, directives, recommendations, Boards, Councils and bodies established to either change the previous system of regulation or to implement it and take it forward. This note brings together the main legislation, bodies and documents to emerge from the five years of the Coalition Government as it affects (mainly) the banking industry.
