On 17 July 2025, the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) published Policy Statement 12/25 ‘Restatement of CRR and Solvency II requirements in PRA Rulebook – 2026 implementation’ (PS12/25).

In PS12/25 the PRA sets out its feedback to the responses to Consultation Paper 8/24 ‘Definition of Capital: restatement of CRR requirements in PRA Rulebook’ and parts of chapters 3 and 7 of Consultation Paper 13/24 ‘Remainder of CRR: Restatement of assimilated law’ concerning supervisory expectations relating to securitisations and the mapping of external credit rating agency ratings to credit quality steps. It also sets out the PRA’s final policy in respect of these proposals.

Next steps

HM Treasury has made The Financial Services and Markets Act 2023 (Commencement No. 10 and Saving Provisions) Regulations 2025 that revoke the relevant provisions of the UK Capital Requirements Regulation.

The PRA rules and policy materials in PS12/25 to restate these (Appendices 2, 4 and 5 of PS12/25) come into force on 1 January 2026.
