Published on 18 December 2012

Responsibility for the supervision of central counterparties and securities settlement systems will transfer to the Bank of England from the Financial Services Authority following the enactment of the Financial Services Bill. The transfer of responsibility is expected to take effect on 1 April 2013. It will sit alongside the Bank’s existing responsibilities for oversight of recognised payment systems.
