In a speech before the European Commission last week, the new financial services and markets commissioner said he will not attempt to unwind the numerous reforms implemented since the financial collapse, but cautioned that any new regulations should be examined for their impact on jobs and growth.
Jonathan Hill, installed this month as commissioner in charge of Financial Stability, Financial Services, and Capital Markets Union, noted that President Jean-Claude Juncker placed jobs and growth at the top of his agenda, and vowed to follow suit by “looking at everything I do through the prism of jobs and growth.”
