The UK's financial regulator has cautioned the government that its push for reduced regulation to boost economic growth may lead to increased risks, more business failures, and harm to consumers. While the regulator is willing to take greater risks to support growth, it has warned that this approach may have negative consequences. As the government seeks to stimulate economic growth, it must balance this goal with the need to protect consumers and businesses from potential harm. Key considerations include financial stability, consumer protection, and economic growth strategies. The regulator's warning highlights the challenges of achieving a balance between growth and regulation in the financial sector.
