Dr Costanza Russo, Senior Lecturer in International Banking Law and Business Ethics at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), has commissioned a research piece by the Committee on Standards in Public Life (CSPL) as part of their review of "Ethics for Regulators". The Committee's role is to advise the Prime Minister on ethical standards across the whole of public life in the UK. Dr Russo will investigate how banking and finance regulatory authorities live up to the Seven Principles of Public Life. The CSPL final report will be published in Autumn.
