LONDON, May 4 (Reuters) - The Bank of England set out plans on Thursday to halve punishments for financial misconduct in certain cases where institutions and individuals cooperate early with its investigations. "The changes ... introduce options for speedier investigatory outcomes, including through the creation of a new route for early cooperation for subjects of an investigation and enhanced settlement discount of up to 50% for early admission," the BoE said.
