Amro International SA and anr v Financial Services Authority and ors – WLR Daily

Posted September 1st, 2009 in disclosure, financial regulation, law reports, proportionality by sally

Amro International SA and anr v Financial Services Authority and ors; [2009] WLR (D) 288

“Although the purpose of ss 169–172 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 was to facilitate investigation in support of overseas regulators and such co-operation was desirable in order to maintain the regulation of financial markets and banks, the nature of the claim in respect of which the Financial Services Authority’s assistance was sought was of fundamental importance and it was wrong to exercise the powers to aid an investigation into allegations that were not made in that claim. The correct approach was to apply a test of proportionality and the documents required should be properly specified.”
