Maggie Craig brings with her 20 years of experience
THE Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has appointed Maggie Craig to the new role of head of department, Scotland – to take forward the City watchdog’s presence in the country.
Craig – who joined the FCA in 2014 and is head of insurance and pensions policy – will be focused on contributing to Scottish aspects of its policies. She brings more than 20 years’ of experience in the Scottish financial services industry to her new role.
“I’m very much looking forward to taking on this new role,” said Craig. “Our continued presence in Scotland is extremely important and through developing a new strategy we’ll be able to maximise our impact.”
Craig will take up her new role at the FCA’s Scotland office in Edinburgh in September.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
