About our Speaker
Mr Peter Brierley, Technical Head of Resolution Policy Division, Resolution Directorate, Bank of England.
Peter Brierley has worked for the Bank of England for over 35 years. Most recently he has been Technical Head of Resolution Policy Division, Resolution Directorate of the Bank.
Between 2007 and 2009, Peter was heavily involved in drawing up the UK Government’s plans to reform its approach to bank resolution, drawing on work he had done over the previous 3 years. This culminated in the passage of the Banking Act in February 2009, which created a Special Resolution Regime for UK-incorporated deposit-taking institutions. The Act gave the Bank of England responsibility for resolving failed banks and led to the establishment within the Bank of the Resolution Directorate.
Peter subsequently worked closely with the Financial Stability Board in developing its Key Attributes of Effective Resolution Regimes and with the European Commission in the development and adoption of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive, which enhanced the scope and toolkit of the UK SRR.
Peter qualified with a BA in Economics and Politics and an M.Phil in Economics from Oxford University.
