The FSA yesterday announced the appointment of Will Samuel to the role of investment banking senior adviser.
Samuel, who joins the FSA from Lazard and Co and has 35 years experience with positions at Coopers & Lybrand and Citigroup, began his new role yesterday (Monday, January 30).
Hector Sants, the FSA’s chief executive officer, said, “I am delighted to announce Will’s appointment today as senior adviser to the FSA.
“Will brings to his role considerable experience of the investment banking sector which will be vital to our work in this area.
“Senior advisers are a core part of the FSA’s delivery of intensive supervision.
“The team provides experience on regulatory, market and consumer matters.”
The FSA is set to close its doors soon, when it hands over the reigns to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Credential Regulation Authority (CRA), expected to happen towards the end of this year.
