Regulatory Committee
The role of RegCom is to take a lead on behalf of the LMA Board in considering regulatory and compliance issues and any impact which these have on LMA Members, and the market in general. This includes providing advice and feedback to the Board, Member firms and Lloyd's, as appropriate.
