LONDON, Dec 5 (Reuters) - Regulators at the Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority on Friday announced a package of measures aimed at supporting Britain's mutuals sector.

The plans seek to speed up application processes, review credit union regulations, and make it easier for mutuals to co-operate.

"Mutuals are a vital part of our financial system. Today’s report examines how the financial mutuals sector is growing, and what we can do to help it thrive in the period ahead," Sam Woods, CEO of the PRA and deputy governor at the BoE, said.
