On August 9, the FSA published a Consultation Paper and Discussion Paper regarding the implementation of Recovery and Resolution Plans by systemically important banks and large investment firms in the UK. The goal of the paper is to present proposals on what is expected of a firm in planning for stress events that would require it to take action to recover or, if necessary, wind-down in an orderly manner without putting UK taxpayers at risk of loss.
