answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/04/2018 answer text <p>The Government is committed to ensuring that the UK is the best place to start and grow a fintech business. The new Fintech Sector Strategy – launched by the Chancellor at the recent HM Treasury-organised International Fintech Conference – sets out the practical steps that have been, and will be, taken to support this commitment. For instance, the Strategy includes pilot schemes to help new fintech firms (and the financial services industry more widely) comply with regulations by building software which would automatically ensure they follow the rules, saving them time and money, and the creation of a set of industry standards which will enable fintech firms to more easily partner with existing banks.</p><p> </p><p>The Strategy is available at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/692874/Fintech_Sector_Strategy_print.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/692874/Fintech_Sector_Strategy_print.pdf</a></p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 18/04/2018 14:17:46 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen
