Posted: 15 Oct 2025 Resource Type: Research Report Download Back The International Regulatory Strategy Group (IRSG) has developed a ‘Global Regulatory Coherence Dashboard’ to understand the impact of increasing global regulatory fragmentation. It maps the extent of global alignment, or divergence, in financial regulations across key policy areas affecting UK-based financial and related professional services (FPS). The dashboard highlights both priority areas where the UK can continue to show its global leadership in promoting regulatory coherence, as well as areas where greater attention or new approaches are required. Global regulatory coherence is crucial for maintaining financial stability, market efficiency, and supporting a connected economy. As a major global financial hub, the UK has significant interest in promoting coherence in the international regulatory environment. HM Treasury’s Financial Services Growth and Competitiveness Strategy set out the objective of “upholding and shaping international financial regulatory norms and standards.” Commenting on the dashboard, Farmida Bi, Chair of the IRSG Council, said “As global financial markets become increasingly interconnected, regulatory coherence is ever more important for stability, efficiency, and innovation. Having a clear picture of the global landscape not only makes clear the UK’s leadership in shaping international standards, but also areas where there is urgent need for collaborative solutions, such as sustainable finance and digital assets. By working with global standard setters and embracing innovative approaches, the UK can continue to ensure it remains open, competitive, and resilient in a rapidly evolving landscape.” Work to produce the dashboard shows that global regulatory coherence often results from established, internationally agreed frameworks, whereas newer, complex, and politically sensitive areas of regulation tend to be more fragmented, which presents both opportunities and challenges for the industry, government, and regulatory authorities.
