Regulators in sharp words over PIA
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A DISPUTE between regulatory chiefs broke out in public yesterday with John Morgan, the chief executive of the Investment Management Regulatory Organisation, accusing Sir Brian Hayes, of the Personal Investment Authority formation committee, of 'false colouring', writes Clare Dobie.
Mr Morgan made his remark at the launch of a consultative document for the PIA, a proposed body which, if formed, will regulate firms selling investments to the public.
Sir Brian, a former civil servant, said only members of PIA would have a hand in drawing up rules.
But Mr Morgan said there was a general duty on regulators to harmonise their rules.
