Ask the City's watchdog
Sir Howard Davies
Sir Howard Davies, chairman of the FSA
It has been a busy 12 months for the City of London's watchdog, the Financial Services Authority (FSA).

A year ago it gained new powers and became a "super-regulator" for the financial services industry, combining the work previously done by numerous self-regulating bodies.

But did the FSA do a good job? And what are the challenges ahead?

Will UK investors be protected from global corporate fraud? Can the flow of terrorist money be stopped?

Are pensions still safe? Why were scandals like the split-caps fiasco not detected earlier? And when will the Equitable saga end?

Put your questions to Sir Howard Davies, the chairman of the FSA, and we will publish his responses on 1 December, the super-regulator's first birthday.

Officials at the FSA informed BBC News Online on 29 November that Sir Howard Davies will not be able to answer reader questions until 2 December.
