A new regulatory focus: the PRA and FCA Senior Insurance Managers framework

13 February 2015

On 2 February 2015, the Prudential Regulation Authority ("PRA") and the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") consultations, which together set out the framework for senior insurance managers, came to a close.

The PRA and FCA are expected to publish consultation feedback, final supervisory statements and rules in March 2015. As the rules will take effect on 1 January 2016 in line with Solvency II, firms are advised to start preparations early.
