Sir Richard Lambert has been tasked with creating ‘an independent body that will promote high standards of competence and behaviour across the UK banking industry’.

In pursuit of this task he issued a consultation paper, following initial discussions with interested parties, inviting feedback on the conclusions reached to that point, and responses to 19 specific questions.

The different streams of the FinCris project have responded to that consultation paper, and the responses can be found on the Banking Standards Review website:
