The PRA has published updated versions of the following approach documents:
- PRA approach to banking supervision; and
- PRA approach to insurance supervision.
The revised version of the PRA’s approach to banking supervision contains amendments reflecting feedback the PRA has received and other recent developments. Key changes include:
- updates explaining the PRA’s new secondary objective;
- addition of the PRA’s ‘Fundamental Rules’ which replaces the ‘Principles of Business’;
- addition of an extra box to list the PRA’s Fundamental Rules;
- amendments to the Liquidity Assets section to further clarify the PRA’s approach and to reflect the PRA’s announcement in August 2013 to change the liquidity asset requirements;
- additional text to clarify the resolvability regime;
- addition of a new box to outline the use of PRA powers to address failings in culture in firms; and
- an updated box (box 9) to reflect the current staff information and the PRA’s new organisation structure following on from the Bank of England’s strategic plan.
