Finma merges asset management and markets divisions

Finma has announced a restructuring of its organisation, effective from today.

The regulator has merged the markets and asset management divisions and created a new cross-divisional function for ‘integrated risk expertise’. 

The integrated risk expertise division (GB-I) will pool the knowledge within the areas of risk functions and cross-divisional topics, such as liquidity, capital and stress tests, credit risks, money laundering and sustainable finance, analysis and instruments, as well as on-site supervisory reviews.
