New FCA Forms Announced

News from the Regulator: New FCA Forms to be used

23rd September 2015

 FCA News: The Regulator announced today that some of their most utilised forms will be replaced with new versions once the Senior Manager’s Regime is effective next year.

The Senior Managers Regime along with the Certification Regime and Conduct Rules are all set to become effective next year as a measure to increase Accountability within the Financial Services for those firms that are dual regulated – by both the FCA and PRA. The Accountability Regime will affect PRA-designated investment firms, deposit-takers and insurers who will all now be busy preparing for the commencement of the new regime on 7th March 2016.

This summer the regulators issued their final rules on Accountability, however they have today entered into consultation  regarding the impact the new Accountability Regime will have on new and existing forms for both firms and individuals.

The proposed amendments required for a series of forms relating to the regulatory approval for certain roles for both individuals and firms have now been issued and comments on the consultation’s proposals are invited by 19th October 2015.

Proposed Amendments to FCA Forms:

There are proposed amendments to questions in two forms for the new regime and two existing FCA forms used in the current Approved Persons Regime.

Changes to Existing FCA Forms:

However there are not only proposed changes to a number of forms effective from next March, but in addition the Regulators have informed that effective immediately, a number of existing forms have been revised. Whilst many firms will access the new revised forms online via the FCA Connect system, the revised portable document versions are now available via the handbook.

A list of current forms that have been revised and are effective immediately (from 18th September 2015) are below.
