Banking reform: are we nearly there yet?



Banking reform: are we nearly there yet?
Seven years on from the crisis, how far have banking systems been reformed? John Vickers will review the economics behind the recommendations of the Independent Commission on Banking, which he chaired in 2010-11, and review progress since.

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A PUBLIC MEETING NOT A SCHOOL TRIP.

Over the course of his career Sir John Vickers has held positions ranging from Chief Economist at the Bank of England to Director General of the Office of Fair Trading. In 2010 he became Chair of the Independent Commission on Banking and a year later made important recommendations such as ring fencing retail from investment banking.
