Reporting requirements

SUP 16.1

Application

SUP 16.1.1

See Notes

handbook-rule
This chapter applies to every firm and qualifying parent undertaking within a category listed in column (2) of the table in SUP 16.1.3 R and in accordance with column (3) of that table.

SUP 16.1.2

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The only categories of firm to which no section of this chapter applies are:
(1) an ICVC;
(2) an incoming EEA firm or incoming Treaty firm, unless it is:
(a) a firm of a type listed in SUP 16.1.3 R as a type of firm to which SUP 16.6, SUP 16.7A, SUP 16.9, SUP 16.12, or SUP 16.14 applies; or
(b) an insurer with permission to effect or carry out life policies;

SUP 16.1.3

Application of different sections of SUP 16 (excluding SUP 16.13, SUP 16.15, SUP 16.16 and SUP 16.17)

SUP 16.1.4

See Notes

handbook-guidance
(1) This chapter contains requirements to report to the appropriate regulator on a regular basis. These requirements include reports relating to a firm's financial condition, and to its compliance with other rules and requirements which apply to the firm. Where the relevant requirements are set out in another section of the Handbook, this chapter contains cross references. An example of this is financial reporting for insurers and friendly societies.
(2) Where such requirements already apply to a firm under legislation other than the Act, they are not referred to in this chapter. An example of this is reporting to the appropriate regulator by building societies under those parts of the Building Societies Act 1986 which have not been repealed.
(3) Requirements for individual firms reflect:
(a) the category of firm;
(b) the nature of business carried on;
(c) whether a firm has its registered office (or if it does not have a registered office, its head office) in the United Kingdom;
(d) whether a firm is an incoming EEA firm or incoming Treaty firm; and
(e) the regulated activities the firm undertakes.

SUP 16.1.7

See Notes

handbook-guidance
Where a PRA-authorised person is required to notify or provide any information to (a) the appropriate regulator by a PRA Handbook provision and (b) the FCA by the equivalent provision in the FCA Handbook, the PRA-authorised person is expected to comply with both provisions.

SUP 16.2

Purpose

SUP 16.2.1A

See Notes

handbook-guidance
(1) In order to discharge its functions under the Act, the PRA needs timely and accurate information about firms. The provision of this information on a regular basis enables the PRA to build up over time a picture of firms' circumstances and behaviour.
(2) A firm is required to deal with the PRA in an open, cooperative and timely way, and to appropriately disclose to the PRA anything relating to the firm of which the PRA would reasonably expect notice. The reporting requirements are part of the PRA's approach to amplifying these requirements by setting out in more detail the information that the PRA requires. They supplement the rules relating to information gathering and notifications to the PRA. The reports required under these rules help the PRA to monitor firms' compliance with the requirement to maintain adequate financial resources, and with other requirements and standards under the regulatory system.

SUP 16.3

SUP 16.3.5

See Notes

handbook-guidance
Further requirements about the reports, such as form and content, are set out in the sections for each category of firm, where this is appropriate. In many cases, however, it is more appropriate to provide this information by means of a separate annex; in these cases the relevant section refers to the annex.

How to submit reports

SUP 16.3.6

See Notes

handbook-rule
A periodic report required to be submitted under this chapter, or under any other rule, must be submitted in writing in accordance with SUP 16.3.7 R to SUP 16.3.10 G, unless:
(1) a contrary intention appears; or
(2) the report is required under the listing rules.

SUP 16.3.7

See Notes

handbook-rule
A report or data item must:
(1) give the firm reference number (or all the firm reference numbers in those cases where a report is submitted on behalf of a number of firms,as set out in SUP 16.3.25 G); and
(2) if submitted in paper form, be submitted with the cover sheet contained in SUP 16 Annex 13 R fully completed.

SUP 16.3.8

See Notes

handbook-rule
A written report must be delivered to the appropriate regulator by one of the methods listed in SUP 16.3.9 R.

SUP 16.3.9

See Notes

handbook-rule

Method of submission of reports (see SUP 16.3.8 R)

SUP 16.3.10

See Notes

handbook-guidance
(1) The current published address of the FCA for postal submission of reports is:
(2) The current published address of the FCA for hand delivery of reports is:
(a)
if the firm's usual supervisory contact at the appropriate regulator is based in London, or:
(b)
if the firm's usual supervisory contact at the FCA is based in Edinburgh.
(3) The current published email address and fax number for the FCA's Central Reporting team is regulatory.reports@fca.org.uk and 020 7066 3905. The Central Reporting team does not handle general correspondence between firms and the appropriate regulator . Accordingly, firms should not make submissions to the Central Reporting team's email address or fax number other than as directed in SUP 16.3.8 R.

Complete reporting

SUP 16.3.11

See Notes

handbook-rule
A firm must submit reports required under this chapter to the appropriate regulator containing all the information required.

SUP 16.3.12

See Notes

handbook-guidance
SUP 15.6 refers to and contains requirements regarding the steps that firms must take to ensure that information provided to the appropriate regulator is accurate and complete. Those requirements apply to reports required to be submitted under this chapter.

Timely reporting

SUP 16.3.13

See Notes

handbook-rule
(1) A firm must submit a report required by this chapter in the frequency, and so as to be received by the appropriate regulator no later than the due date, specified for that report.
(2) If the due date for submission of a report required by this chapter falls on a day which is not a business day, the report must be submitted so as to be received by the appropriate regulator no later than the first business day after the due date.
(3) If the due date for submission of a report required by this chapter is a set period of time after the quarter end, the quarter ends will be the following dates, unless another rule or the reporting form states otherwise:
(b) 3 months after the firm's accounting reference date;
(c) 6 months after the firm's accounting reference date; and
(d) 9 months after the firm's accounting reference date.
(4) If the due date for submission of a report required by this chapter is a set period of time after the end of a half-year, a quarter, or a month, the dates will be determined by (a) or (b) below except where otherwise indicated:
(b) monthly, 3 monthly or 6 months after the firm's accounting reference date, as the case may be.

Failure to submit reports

SUP 16.3.14

See Notes

handbook-rule
(1) If a firm does not submit a complete report by the date on which it is due in accordance with the rules in, or referred to in, this chapter or the provisions of relevant legislation and any prescribed submission procedures, the firm must pay an administrative fee of £250.
(2) The administrative fee in (1) does not apply in respect of quarterly reports required to be submitted by credit unions whose liability to pay a periodic fee under FEES 4.2.1 R in respect of the A.1 activity group in FEES 4 Annex 1A and FEES 4 Annex 1B R , for the financial year prior to the due date for submission of the report, was limited to the payment of the minimum fee.

SUP 16.3.14A

See Notes

handbook-guidance
Failure to submit a report in accordance with the rules in, or referred to in, this chapter or the provisions of relevant legislation may also lead to the imposition of a financial penalty and other disciplinary sanctions. A firm may be subject to reporting requirements under relevant legislation other than the Act, not referred to in this chapter. An example of this is reporting to the appropriate regulator by building societies under those parts of the Building Societies Act 1986 which have not been repealed (see SUP 16.1.4 G). If it appears to the appropriate regulator that, in the exceptional circumstances of a particular case, the payment of any fee would be inequitable, the appropriate regulator may reduce or remit all or part of the fee in question which would otherwise be payable (see FEES 2.3).

SUP 16.3.15

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The appropriate regulator may from time to time send reminders to firms when reports are overdue. Firms should not, however, assume that the appropriate regulator has received a report merely because they have not received a reminder.

SUP 16.3.16

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The firm is responsible for ensuring delivery of the required report at the by the due date. If a report is received by the appropriate regulator after the due date and the firm believes its delivery arrangements were adequate, it may be required to provide proof of those arrangements. Examples of such proof would be:
(1) "proof of posting" receipts from a UK post office or overseas equivalent which demonstrates that the report was posted early enough to allow delivery by the due date in accordance with the delivery service standards prescribed by the relevant postal authority; or
(2) recorded postal delivery receipts showing delivery on the required day; or
(3) records of a courier service provider showing delivery on the required day.

Change of accounting reference date

SUP 16.3.17A

See Notes

handbook-rule
(1) A firm must notify the appropriate regulator if it changes its accounting reference date.
(2) When a firm extends its accounting period, it must make the notification in (1) before the previous accounting reference date.
(3) When a firm shortens its accounting period, it must make the notification in (1) before the new accounting reference date.
(4) Notifications 5.3A and 5.5 (Core Information Requirements) apply to any notification made under (1).

SUP 16.3.18

See Notes

handbook-guidance
SUP 16.2.1 G emphasises the importance to the appropriate regulator of timely and accurate information. The extension of a firm's accounting period to more than 15 months may hinder the timely provision of relevant and important information to the appropriate regulator. This is because many due dates for reporting to the appropriate regulator are linked to firms' accounting reference dates. Indeed, for some categories of firm, the only reports required by the appropriate regulator have due dates for submission which are linked to the firm's accounting reference date. If the extension of a firm's accounting period appears likely to impair the effectiveness of the appropriate regulator's supervisory work, the appropriate regulator may take action to ensure that it continues to receive the information it requires on a timely basis. This may include the use of any of the tools of supervision set out in SUP 1.4.5 G.

SUP 16.3.19

See Notes

handbook-guidance
If more than one firm in a group intends to change its accounting reference date at the same time, a single notification may be given to the appropriate regulator , as described in SUP 15.7.8 G.

Notifications regarding financial information reporting under the EU CRR

SUP 16.3.19A

See Notes

handbook-rule
(1) A firm must notify the PRA if it is required to report financial information in accordance with Article 99 (2) of the EU CRR.

[Note: Firms may use the "FINREP notification forms" that reside on this page of the Bank's website to make a notification according to SUP16.3.19A or B]
(2) A firm must notify the PRA when it ceases to report financial information in accordance with Article 99 (2) of the EU CRR.

SUP 16.3.19B

See Notes

handbook-rule
A firm must notify the PRA if it adjusts its reporting reference dates for financial information under Article 99 of the EU CRR from the calendar year to its accounting year-end.

Service of Notices Regulations

SUP 16.3.22

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Service of Notices) Regulations 2001 (SI 2001/1420) contain provisions relating to the service of documents on the appropriate regulator . They do not apply to reports required under SUP 16, because of the specific rules in this section.

Reports from groups

SUP 16.3.25

See Notes

handbook-guidance
If this chapter requires the submission of a report or data item covering a group, a single report or data item may be submitted, and so satisfy the requirements of all firms in the group. Such a report or data item should contain the information required from all of them, meet all relevant due dates and indicate all the firms on whose behalf it is submitted; if necessary a separate covering sheet should list the firms on whose behalf a report or data item is submitted. Nevertheless, the requirement to provide a report or data item, and the responsibility for the report or data item, remains with each firm in the group. However, reporting requirements that apply to a firm, by reason of the firm being a member of a financial conglomerate, are imposed on only one member of the financial conglomerate (see, for example, SUP 16.12.32 R).

Purpose

SUP 16.4.4

See Notes

handbook-guidance
A firm and its controllers are required to notify certain changes in control (see SUP 11 (Controllers and close links)). The purpose of the rules and guidance in this section is:
(1) to ensure that, in addition to such notifications, the appropriate regulator receives regular and comprehensive information about the identities of all of the controllers of a firm, which is relevant to a firm's continuing to satisfy the effective supervision threshold conditions;
(2) to implement certain requirements relating to annual reporting of controllers which must be imposed on firms under the Investment Services Directive, the Banking Consolidation Directive, the Consolidated Life Directive and the Third Non-Life Directive; and
(3) to support the regulatory functions under Part 12of the Act (Notices of acquisitions of control over UK authorised persons) (see SUP 11 (Controllers and close links)).

SUP 16.4.7

See Notes

handbook-guidance
If a group includes more than one firm, a single annual controllers report may be submitted, and so satisfy the requirements of all firms in the group. Such a report should contain the information required from all of them, meet all relevant due dates, indicate all the firms on whose behalf it is submitted and give their firm reference numbers. Nevertheless, the requirement to provide a report, and the responsibility for the report, remain with each firm in the group.

SUP 16.4.9

See Notes

handbook-guidance
Firms are reminded of the requirement in SUP 11.4.10 R to take reasonable steps to keep themselves informed about the identity of their controllers.

Exceptions: friendly societies and building societies

SUP 16.4.10

See Notes

handbook-rule
If a firm is a friendly society or a building society, then it is required to submit a report under SUP 16.4.5 R only if it is aware that it has a controller.

SUP 16.4.11

See Notes

handbook-rule
In SUP 16.4.5 R and SUP 16.4.10 R, a building society may regard a person as not being a controller if that person is exempt from the obligation to notify a change in control under The Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Controllers) (Exemption) Order 2009 (SI 2009/774) (see SUP 11.3.2A G (2)).

Exception: insurers

SUP 16.4.12

See Notes

handbook-rule
An insurer need not submit a report under SUP 16.4.5 R to the extent that the information has already been provided to the appropriate regulator under IPRU(INS) 9.30R (Additional information on controllers).

SUP 16.5

Annual Close Links Reports

Application

SUP 16.5.1

See Notes

handbook-guidance
This section applies to every firm listed in SUP 11.1.1 R (1) to SUP 11.1.1 R (6), except those firms excluded from its operation by SUP 16.1.1 R and SUP 16.1.3 R or which have elected to report on a monthly basis in accordance with SUP 11.9.5 R.

Purpose

SUP 16.5.2

See Notes

handbook-guidance
A firm is required to notify the appropriate regulator of changes to its close links (see SUP 11.9). The effective supervision threshold conditions provide that, if a firm has close links with another person, the matters which are relevant in determining whether a firm satisfies the condition of being capable of being effective supervised include:
(1) the nature of the relationship between the firm and that person;
(2) whether those links or that relationship are likely to prevent the appropriate regulator's effective supervision of the firm; and
(3) if the person is subject to the laws, regulations or administrative provisions of a territory which is not an EEA State, whether those foreign provisions, or any deficiency in their enforcement, would prevent the appropriate regulator's effective supervision of the firm.

SUP 16.5.3

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The purposes of the rules and guidance in this section are:
(1) to ensure that, in addition to such notifications, the appropriate regulator receives regular and comprehensive information about the identities of all persons with whom a firm has close links, which is relevant to a firm's continuing to satisfy the effective supervision threshold conditions and to the protection of consumers; and
(2) to implement certain requirements relating to the provision of information on close links which must be imposed on firms under the 'Post-BCCI Directive'.

(6) A firm must submit a report to the appropriate regulator annually by completing the Close Links Annual Report in SUP 16 Annex 36A which must be sent electronically to the appropriate regulator within four months of the firm'saccounting reference date.

SUP 16.5.4A

See Notes

handbook-rule
If a group includes more than one firm, a single close links notification may be made by completing the Annual Close Links Report and so satisfy the notification requirement for all firms in the group. Nevertheless, the requirement to notify, and the responsibility for notifying, remains with each firm in the group.

SUP 16.5.6

See Notes

handbook-guidance
If a group includes more than one firm, a single annual close links report may be submitted and so satisfy the requirements of all firms in the group. Such a report should contain the information required from all of them, meet all relevant due dates, indicate all the firms on whose behalf it is submitted and give their firm reference numbers. Nevertheless, the requirement to provide a report, and the responsibility for the report, remain with each firm in the group.

SUP 16.5.8

See Notes

handbook-rule
If a firm is an unincorporated friendly society, then it is only required to submit a report under SUP 16.5.4 R if it is aware that it has close links.

SUP 16.6

Compliance reports

Application

SUP 16.6.1

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The effect of SUP 16.1.1 R is that this section applies to every firm within a category listed in the left hand column of the table in SUP 16.6.2 G.

SUP 16.6.2

See Notes

handbook-guidance

Applicable provisions of this section (see SUP 16.6.1 G)

Purpose

SUP 16.6.3B

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The PRA performs part of its supervision work by reviewing and analysing information about firms' records of compliance with prudential requirements and standards. The type of report the PRA requires will vary, depending on the type of business a firm undertakes. This information helps the PRA to determine whether a firm is complying with the requirements applicable to its business, and what procedures it is operating to ensure its compliance.

Banks

SUP 16.6.4

See Notes

handbook-rule
A bank must submit compliance reports to the appropriate regulator in accordance with SUP 16.6.5 R.

SUP 16.6.5

handbook-rule

Compliance reports from a bank (see SUP 16.6.4 R)

SUP 16.12

Integrated Regulatory Reporting

Application

SUP 16.12.1

See Notes

handbook-guidance

The effect of SUP 16.1.1 R is that this section applies to every firm carrying on business set out in column (1) of SUP 16.12.4 R except:

  1. (1) an incoming EEA firm with permission for cross border services only;
  2. (1A) an incoming EEA firm in relation to its carrying on of bidding in emissions auctions;
  3. (2) an oil market participant that is not subject to the requirements of IPRU(INV) Chapter 3;
  4. (3) an authorised professional firm (other than one that must comply with IPRU(INV) 3, 5 or 13 in accordance with IPRU(INV) 2.1.4R,or that is a CASS debt management firm, where SUP 16.12.4 R will apply in respect of the business the firm undertakes), which must (unless it is within (3A)) comply with SUP 16.12.30 R SUP 16.12.31 R;
  5. (3A) an authorised professional firm if the only regulated activity it carries on is credit-related regulated activity as a non-mainstream regulated activity; and
  6. (4) a financial conglomerate, which must comply with SUP 16.12.32 R: firms that are members of a financial conglomerate will have their own reporting requirements under SUP 16.12.32 R.

Purpose

SUP 16.12.2

See Notes

handbook-guidance
  1. (1) Principle 4 requires firms to maintain adequate financial resources. The Interim Prudential sourcebooks, BIPRU, GENPRU and IFPRU set out the appropriate regulator's detailed capital adequacy requirements. By submitting regular data, firms enable the appropriate regulator to monitor their compliance with Principle 4 and their prudential requirements.
  2. (2) The data items submitted help the appropriate regulator analyse firms' financial and other conditions and performance and to understand their business. By means of further collation and review of the data which the data items provide, the appropriate regulator also uses the data items to identify developments across the financial services industry and its constituent sectors.
  3. (3) The requirements in this section differ according to a firm's regulated activity group (RAG), as different information is required to reflect different types of business. Standard formats are used for reporting, to assist compatibility between firms which carry on similar types of business. Timely submission is important to ensure the appropriate regulator has up-to-date information.

Reporting requirement

SUP 16.12.3

See Notes

handbook-rule
(1) Any firm permitted to carry on any of the activities within each of the RAGs set out in column (1) of the table in SUP 16.12.4 R must:
(a)
(i) unless (ii) or (iii) applies, submit to the appropriate regulator the duly completed data items or other items applicable to the firm as set out in the provision referred to in column (2) of that table;
(ii) unless (iii) applies, where a firm is required to submit completed data items for more than one RAG, that firm must only submit the data item of the same name and purpose in respect of the lowest numbered RAG applicable to it, RAG 1 being the lowest and RAG12 the highest;
(iii) where a firm is, but for this rule, required to submit data items for more than one RAG and this includes the submission of data items in respect of fees, the FOS or FSCS levy, or threshold conditions, that firm must only submit these data items if they belong to the lowest numbered of the RAGs applicable to it;
(iv) in the case of a non-EEA bank, or an EEA bank (whether or not it has permission for accepting deposits) other than one with permission for cross border services only, any data items submitted should, unless indicated otherwise, only cover the activities of the branch operation in the United Kingdom;
in the format specified as applicable to the firm in the provision referred to in column (2);
(b) submit this information at the frequency and in respect of the periods set out in the provision referred to in column (3); and
(c) submit this information by the due date referred to in the provision referred to in column (4).
(2) Unless (3) applies, any data item in (1) must be submitted by electronic means made available by the appropriate regulator;
(3) Paragraph(2) does not apply to:
(a) credit unions solely in relation to the reporting requirement for RAG 1 activities where the following submission methods apply:
(i) Post to the Bank of England for postal submission:
Regulatory Data Group
Statistics and Regulatory Data Division (HO5 A-B)
Bank of England
Threadneedle Street
London
EC2R 8AH
(ii) Leaving the report marked for the attention of "Regulatory Data Group, Statistics and Regulatory Data Division (HO 5 A-B) at the Bank of England, Threadneedle Street, London, EC2R 8AH, and obtaining a dated receipt
(iii) Electronic mail
(CreditUnionReporting@BankofEngland.co.uk) or fax (020 7601 3334) to the Regulatory Data Group of the Bank of England
(iv) Online submission via the appropriate systems accessible from the appropriate regulator's website;
(aa) data item CCR008 from RAG 12 , where SUP 16.3.6 R to SUP 16.3.10 G will apply; (FCA Handbook only)
(b) firms in RAG 2 in relation to the reporting requirements for RAG 2 activities; and
(c) those data items specified as "No standard format", where SUP 16.3.6 R to SUP 16.3.10 G will apply.
(4) A firm that is a member of a financial conglomerate must also submit financial reports as required by SUP 16.12.32 R.

SUP 16.12.3A

See Notes

handbook-guidance
The following is designed to assist firms to understand how the reporting requirements set out in this chapter operate when the circumstances set out in SUP 16.12.3R (1)(a)(ii) apply.
(1) Example 1
A UK designated investment firm that undertakes activities in both RAG3 and RAG 7
Overlaying the requirements of RAG 3 ( data items ) with the requirements of RAG 7 shows the following: From this, the additional reports that are required are:
(a) [deleted]
(b) Professional indemnity insurance, where RAG 7 firms complete Section E of the RMAR, and therefore a RAG3 firm should complete that;
(c) [deleted]
(d) Training and competence data, where RAG3 firms should also complete Section G of RMAR;
(e) Conduct of business data, where RAG3 firms should complete Section H of RMAR.
(f) [deleted]
(g) [deleted]
The reporting frequency and submission times for items (b), (d) and (e) above are then derived from the rules applicable to firms in SUP 16.12.23 R and SUP 16.12.224 R. Threshold conditions and fees and levies reports do not need to be submitted as they are not required under the lowest numbered of the two RAGs in this example, see SUP 16.12.3R (1)(a)(iii).
(2) Example 2
A UK bank that is not a FINREP firm in RAG 1 that also carries on activities in RAG 5
Again, overlaying the RAG 1 reporting requirements with the requirements for a RAG 5 firm gives the following : In this case, it is more obvious that the firm's reporting requirement in RAG 1 is not all the data items listed above. However, for the purposes of this exercise, it is the list of potential data items that is important. Thus comparing RAG 1 with RAG 5, the additional reporting requirements are:
(a) Lending - Business flow and rates, where Section D MLAR is required;
(b) Residential Lending to individuals - New business profile, where Section E MLAR is required;
(c) Lending - Arrears analysis, where Section F MLAR is required;
(d) Mortgage administration - Business profile, where Section G MLAR is required;
(e) Mortgage Administration - Arrears analysis, where Section H MLAR is required
(f) Analysis of loans to customers, where section A3 of MLAR is required
(g) Provisions analysis, where Section B2 of MLAR is required; and
Fees and levies are not applicable as they are not required to be submitted under the lowest numbered RAG in this example. The reporting frequency and submission times for items (a) to (g) above are then derived from the rules applicable to RAG 5 firms in SUP 16.12.18 R.
