The Credit Institutions and Investment Firms (Miscellaneous Definitions) (Amendment) Regulations 2026 published

The Credit Institutions and Investment Firms (Miscellaneous Definitions) (Amendment) Regulations 2026 were published with an explanatory memorandum. This follows HM Treasury's policy response on applying the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 model of regulation to the UK Capital Requirements Regulation (UK CRR). The Regulations make amendments to support the transition away from retained EU law by ensuring that key prudential definitions continue to be set out in domestic legislation ahead of the revocation of relevant provisions in the UK CRR. The draft version was laid before Parliament in March. The Regulations enter into force on 1 January 2027.
