Impact Assessment of Financial Service Providers: Market Conduct Risk-Based Supervision Guideline Note

The impact assessment of financial service providers (FSPs) is one of the main pillars of the Market Conduct Risk Based Supervision (MC-RBS) framework. As with prudential supervision, the MC-RBS framework maps FSPs based on their impacts and risks, allowing scarce supervisory resources to be more efficiently allocated.

This guideline note will assist policymakers in developing impact assessment frameworks, under the MC-RBS umbrella and the overarching goals of financial consumer protection policy.
