The Jersey Financial Services Commission (JFSC) has appointed Andrew Garbutt as Head of Supervisory Risk within its Supervision Division.
Andrew, who has worked in regulation in the UK for more than 10 years, will lead the new division, established as part of the Commission’s revised approach to supervision. He and his team will identify risks in the financial sector and the ways in which the JFSC can best address them.
Andrew has spent the majority of his career at the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) as Director of Risk, where he designed an approach for all levels of risk assessment for more than 10,000 UK law firms.
He also spent a year as the SRA’s Director of Supervision, before which he worked for eight years with HM Land Registry in a range of technical and casework roles.
