期貨和衍生品行業(yè)監管動(dòng)態(tài)
正如在征求意見(jiàn)前的表態(tài)，FCA 很樂(lè )意提供支持，作為對任何修改的潛在
影響進(jìn)行詳細研究的一部分。
FCA 曾指出，英國對高凈值投資者的定義是國際上的一個(gè)例外，其門(mén)檻遠
低于同類(lèi)司法管轄區。
在上一份監管范圍邊界報告中，我們建議收緊投資者被歸類(lèi)為“專(zhuān)業(yè)”
（‘sophisticated’）投資者的標準。這是為了避免在許多投資欺詐或不當行為中出
現的風(fēng)險，即普通投資者往往在壓力或指導下進(jìn)行自我分類(lèi)，購買(mǎi)與其風(fēng)險偏好
或損失承受能力不匹配的高風(fēng)險投資。
Changes to the Financial Promotions Order (2024/3/6)
The FCA and industry implemented the changes to the high net worth
exemption by 31 January 2024 as required under the law.
These changes were taken forward after detailed consultation and
recommendations made by the Treasury Select Committee in 2021 that the
government should re-evaluate the appropriateness of the Financial Promotion Order
exemptions.
We will continue to work with the government on how the financial promotions
regime can be strengthened to avoid consumer harm, while ensuring access to
sustainable sources of investment for growing businesses.
As we did ahead of the consultation, we would be happy to provide support as
part of a detailed examination of the potential impact of any reversal.
We have previously set out that the UK’s definition of a high net worth investor
is an international outlier, with a far lower threshold than comparable jurisdictions.
