Investment Firm Prudential Regime

The UK Investment Firm Prudential Regime (IFPR) comes into force on 1 January 2022. It will affect all FCA prudentially regulated MiFID investment firms, including principal brokers and matched principal brokers; investment managers; and adviser/arranger firms categorised as ‘exempt-CAD’.

The new rules present major changes, requiring some firms to hold much more capital and introducing new obligations such as the Internal Capital Adequacy and Risk Assessment (ICARA) process.

According to the FCA 3,600 firms will be affected and around one third will face a significant impact and including the requirement to implement new processes, policies and procedures (source: FCA CP21/7 published May 2021).
