UK Prudential Regulation Authority response to HM Treasury November 2024 letter on remit and recommendations

HM Treasury has published a letter (dated December 18, 2024) from Andrew Bailey, BoE Governor, in his role as Chair of the Prudential Regulation Committee. In the letter, Mr Bailey sets out the response of the PRC to HMT's November 2024 letter on recommendations for the PRC. The letter discusses actions taken by the PRA to advance the secondary competitiveness and growth objective and sets out the work the PRA is taking or planning to take in support of the specific recommendation to the PRC on government economic policy. This work includes planned consultations on: (i) the banking data review. The PRA plans to consult in the summer on reforms resulting from the first phase of the review, which will cover changes to reporting on Counterparty Credit Risk and explore the scope for returns that the PRA can delete outright; and (ii) the Senior Managers & Certification Regime. The PRA plans to consult in the coming months on proposals to increase the efficiency of the regime by providing greater flexibility and clarity to firms and individuals.
