IOSCO publishes results of the third annual Risk Outlook Survey, which provides a detailed analysis of responses to its annual Risk Outlook Survey.
The survey is an annual exercise formulated to collect the views of financial market regulators and experts globally on those risk areas that are of concern.
This edition of the survey was conducted in March/April 2015.
The main purpose of the survey is to gather views on risks to and within securities markets and to help identify or highlight pockets of risk that may not be captured by normal statistical analysis or desk research.
This is the fourth year that IOSCO Research has conducted this particular exercise.
Unlike previous editions of the survey, the latest iteration expanded the line of questioning to include not only risks to financial stability, but also the risks to investor protection and to the fair, efficient and transparent operation of markets.
