Regulatory Compass: Re-thinking regulation

Last week we celebrated the launch of our ground-breaking report, The Regulatory Compass: Towards a purpose-driven approach to financial regulation. The Regulatory Compass draws from the experience of the Lab’s community to argue that we need a new approach to regulation – one that puts people and planet first.

The launch event was a much needed opportunity to start discussing questions such as: what is the future and purpose of financial regulation in a changing world? And what can be done by regulators, policymakers and all who want to make finance serve a purpose beyond profit?
