  • Episode 31: Should regulators commercialise?
    This month's podcast from the @Institute of Regulation asks whether regulators should make money from their assets - their data and their knowledge of regulation and the law. Some might say not; regulators are often funded from public money. But @Richard South, Chief Executive of @TSO, and @Sam Walsh, a partner at @Deloitte, argue that there are legitimate ways for regulators to benefit from their assets in ways that can improve compliance and save public money.They recommend that regulators first understand what assets they have, and then find ways to make their regulations and guidance available in ways that are accessible to their users. Today, this means not only users themselves but the AI tools that can be deployed to help users comply. UK expertise can legitimately be commercialised internationally too. They conclude that, by keeping an open mind, and by understanding what assets they have, UK regulators have opportunities to save taxpayers' money and generate growth if they sometimes think commercially too. You can listen to the podcast here.

The sound engineer for the podcast is Neil Bowerman. Neil will send out professional microphones to participants in advance, upon receipt of addresses.On the day of the recording, after we have checked the technical requirements and the recording has started, Marcial will introduce the topic of the podcast and the guests. The podcast will last around 30 minutes in total. It will be conversational in style. We discourage long pre-prepared ‘speeches’, and aim for shorter interventions, but equally we are happy for participants to get across their key messages and promote their work. Any bad ‘mistakes’ can be edited out, but we will record it ‘as live’. An outline script for the podcast is below to allow for preparation. But we may deviate ‘off script’ to pursue an interesting issue or cut questions short to end on schedule.
