This work covers the regulation and supervision of banks, insurers, payment services and other financial services activities in England under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. A solicitor advises on authorisation applications, compliance with FCA and PRA rules, reporting, capital and liquidity requirements, and market conduct; drafts regulatory agreements; and represents clients in investigations, enforcement matters and cross‑border regulatory issues.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The provisions and procedures governing authorised firms—such as FSMA, the FCA Handbook, PRA rules, MiFID II and anti‑money laundering regimes—create sophisticated compliance and negotiation challenges that a solicitor helps navigate through risk assessment, policy responses and regulator liaison.
