IFPR: Understanding how your firm is categorised, the thresholds and the capital and liquidity calculations

The Investment Firm Prudential Regime is coming into effect in the UK in January 2022 and brings many more firms into scope than the previous prudential regime. This session outlines the regulation and requirements for all firms, with a deeper dive into the thresholds and calculations firms will be subject to.

Wednesday 29th September 2021, 4pm – 5pm

IFPR: What are K-Factors and how do they impact capital requirements?

This session outlines the risk indicators, or ‘K-Factors’ set out by the new Investment Firm Prudential Regime and the possible impact on capital requirements. Impact assessment work indicates that some firms’ capital requirements may be significantly affected.

Wednesday 6th October 2021, 4pm – 5pm

IFPR: Introduction to IFPR regulatory reporting and ICARA?

The ICARA (Internal Capital and Risk Assessment) replaces the ICAAP (Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process) and while the two are superficially similar, the ICARA increases the focus on risk assessments and will be required by all firms on an annual basis.
