Call for evidence description

The Call for Evidence period closed on 2 September 2021.

The Securitisation Regulation is the main legislation that regulates securitisation activities in the UK.

Responses to this call for evidence will inform the government’s review of the Securitisation Regulation, on which a report will be laid before Parliament by 1 January 2022.

The overarching aims of the review are:

  • to bolster securitisation standards in the UK, in order to enhance investor protection and promote market transparency; and
  • to support and develop securitisation markets in the UK, including through the increased issuance of STS securitisations, in order to ultimately increase their contribution to the real economy.

The government seeks views on how the UK’s securitisation market is performing and how the Securitisation Regulation can be tailored to the UK.

The consultation ran for 10 weeks, ending on 2 September 2021. Please submit your responses to SecuritisationReview@hmtreasury.gov.uk.
