Consultation on revised Outsourcing Policy (Revised OSP)

 
We are issuing this consultation in accordance with Article 8(3) of the Commission Law, under which the JFSC “may, in connection with the carrying out of its functions […] consult and seek the advice of such persons or bodies whether inside or outside Jersey as it considers appropriate”.

4. Have you identified any unintended consequences or unusual results due to the requirement for all Supervised Persons having to comply with the Revised OSP?

 

5. Have you identified any unintended consequences of Managed Trust Company Business (MTCB) being exempt from the application of the Revised OSP?
