Yesterday HM Treasury issued a consultation on a proposed special administration regime for insolvent payment and e-money institutions.
Speed is clearly of the essence for the government as the statutory instrument was passed following only informal consultation with trade associations (and only comes into force next week[1]). This consultation is on the regulations and will close in six weeks’ time on 14 January. The rules of the regime will be published in a fortnight’s time and will be subject to consultation until 28 January.
