Financial Services Commission, Jamaica

The Financial Services Commission (FSC) came into existence on August 2, 2001 by virtue of the Financial Services Commission Act. It has replaced the Office of the Superintendent of Insurance (OSI) and Unit Trusts and the Securities Commission. The FSC oversees these entities by administering a number of statutes and accompanying regulations. The relevant statutes are the FSC Act, the Securities Act, the Pension Act, the Unit Trusts Act and the Insurance Act. The FSC is governed by a Board of Commissioners established by law and made up of a Chairman, and 7 other Commissioners, including the Executive Director. The Executive Director is appointed by the other Commissioners who in turn are appointed by the Minister of Finance. The Executive Director is the only full time Commissioner and is responsible for managing the activities of the FSC. We appreciate your interest in our organization. We are seeking individuals who are driven, results-oriented and have a passion for providing excellent service.
