Financial Regulators

Financial regulators are government agencies or authorities responsible for overseeing banks, investment firms, insurance companies, and other financial institutions. Their role is to ensure these entities operate safely, honestly, and within the law, protecting consumers and maintaining the stability of the financial system. They set rules, supervise compliance, and take action if institutions take excessive risks or behave unlawfully. Essentially, they act as guardians to promote trust, prevent financial crises, and ensure the economy functions smoothly.
