The FCA and PRA have started to provide firms who are in the Temporary Permission Regime (TPR) with “landing slots”. These are 3-month windows by which firms must submit their applications to the regulator(s) in order to become fully authorised.

If firms do not submit their applications by the specific closing date, regulators may cancel the firm’s temporary permission, meaning that EU firm will no longer be permitted to carry on regulated activities in the UK and if the firm is eligible, they will be moved to a supervised run off mechanism. Therefore, it is imperative that firms submit their application before their 3-month window closes.

Several of our clients have been provided with their landing slots, so we thought it would be an opportune moment to remind firms of how ICSR can assist with the application process.

If you would like to review the history of the Temporary Permissions Regime, you can view all of our articles and webinars on the subject here.

ICSR has helped many firms over the last 4 years (Insurers, MGAs and Brokers) submit both firm authorisation and senior manager applications including as well as helping firms develop and draft the important Regulatory Business Plan which supports the application.

We are able to provide the following support:

  • Application Completion
    Working alongside appropriate stakeholders at your firm including compliance, risk, finance and others, ICSR can complete the application and draft the required additional documentation.
  • Subject Matter Expert
    We can provide your firm with application support and be on hand to provide expert advice and provide answers to any queries that you may have as you go through the process.
  • Application Project Management
    ICSR can provide a project manager to assist you to with manageing the process acrossefforts as finance, compliance, risk, business management, actuaries and others business areas as that may be necessary, working together to develop the Regulatory Business Plan required for the application for your firm. We outline all the documentation that needs to be provided, set deadlines for completion of tasks and hold regular progress meetings to ensure the application is progressing in line with deadlines.
  • Application Review
    Once your firm has completed the application and the various additional documentation, ICSR can review the application in its entirety and provide a “sense check” to ensure no key points or information are missing.
