The FSB’s charter, revised in 2012, says that signatories are subject to no legal obligations whatsoever. Unlike the World Trade Organization, for example, no international treaty underpins the FSB, which means that countries cannot be sanctioned for failing to implement the standards to which they are ostensibly committed.
事实上，整座全球金融监管大厦是建立在“竭尽全力”的基础上的。2012年修订的金融稳定委员会章程说，签署国不会有任何法律义务。和（比如）世贸组织不同，金融稳定委员会背后没有国际条约，这意味着不能因为某国没有实施其表面上承诺的标准而制裁它。
