FCA Statement on proposals to introduce a public register

The FCA has published a statement  announcing that it will consult on proposals to make information available on a wider range of individuals at authorised firms.

Under the FCA’s proposals to extend the Senior Managers and Certification Regime, the FCA will only approve the most senior individuals within firms, resulting in only senior managers appearing on the FS register.

In response to these proposals, the FCA received feedback on the public value of the FCA maintaining a central public record of certification employees and other important individuals in regulated firms who will no longer appear on the FS register.

To address this feedback, the FCA will consult by summer 2018 on policy proposals to introduce a public register.
