I sin betænkning, som vores gruppe i øvrigt har bidraget flittigt til, bruger hr. Rasmussen HBOS og Northern Rock som begrundelser for mere lovgivning, men HBOS og Northern Rock var banker, ikke hedgefonde og private equity, og var omfattet af hele det eksisterende stramme reguleringssystem for banker, inklusive egenkapitalkravene.
In his report, to which incidentally our group has made a lot of contributions, Mr Rasmussen used HBOS and Northern Rock in his speech as reasons for more regulation, but HBOS and Northern Rock were banks, not hedge funds and private equity, and subject to the full rigour of the existing regulatory system for banks, including statutory capital requirements.
