Sir Paul Tucker spent over 30 years as a regulator before retiring from the Bank of England in 2013. His new role: making sure regulators do a good job.

He is not quite poacher-turned-gamekeeper - but it's not far off. Since the start of the year, Tucker has been chairman of the Systemic Risk Council, a body supported by the CFA Institute which boasts an A-list of former regulators and politicians on its council, formed because of concerns that regulation was being made too slowly - especially regulation protecting consumers from systemic risks.
