The Financial Supervisory Commission is a commission of Ministry of Finance, subordinate to the Executive Yuan of the Republic of China. Its main office is located in Banciao City, Taipei County.[1] It is charged with regulating securities markets (including the Taiwan Stock Exchange and the Taiwan Futures Exchange), banking, and the insurance sector. It was created on 1 July 2004 in order to unify several previously-separate regulatory authorities which separately supervised differend sectors of the finance industry.[2] Prior to the actual creation of the commission, several alternative structures for regulatory agency reform had been proposed, including a purely non-governmental commission, as well as the establishment of both a governmental regulatory agency and non-governmental supervisory commission; the choice of a purely governmental commission was finalised in 2003 by the Legislative Yuan.[3] The commission has faced frequent changes in leadership in its short history, due to scandals and crises which began when its first chairperson was removed from his position due to corruption.[4]
