FCA Investment Firms Prudential Regime webinars

Nov 17, 2021 12:00:00 AM

What is happening?

The Investment Firms Prudential Regime (IFPR) is the new prudential regime for FCA investment firms. The regime will come into force on 1 January 2022, and it is critical that firms prepare fully for it.

What do you need to do?

The FCA will host two webinars on 30 November 2021, focusing on areas where it has received the most queries to date. There will be a technical session from 10:00 to 11:00 – this session will cover more technical aspects of the Investment Firms Prudential Regime, such as the groups and own funds requirements. A practical implementation session will follow, from 14:00 to 15:00, which will focus on some more practical aspects of the regime such as the ICARA process, reporting, and the applications and notifications process.

For further details and to register, firms can visit the FCA event webpage referred to below.

There will be an opportunity to submit questions to the speakers when registering, although the FCA will not be able to answer firm-specific questions or provide individual guidance at the webinars.

Registration is open to all IFPR firms and firms can attend one or both sessions.

The webinars will also be available on-demand shortly after transmission. The FCA is encouraging firms to register whether they intend to watch the webinars live or on-demand. Register here.
