This page provided information about how to serve the PRA with copies of written statements to a firm’s ring-fencing transfer schemes (RFTS).
13 May 2019: We have deleted links to information from other organisations as we became aware that these were being moved or deleted. If you need the information, please contact the relevant firm direct.
7 August 2018: This page is no longer being updated as the process for submitting written statements to the PRA on RFTS has ended.
Why is the PRA served copies of written statements to a firm’s RFTS?
Persons alleging they would be adversely affected by the carrying out of an RFTS are entitled to be heard by the court if, before the final hearing, they file (or lodge in Scotland) their written statement with the court and serve copies on the PRA and the firm whose business is to be transferred (section 110(5) Financial Services and Markets Act 2000).
The firms have provided further information on their websites about how persons can file their written statements, and by when this must be done. The deadline will be different for each firm. Please see the specific firm's website for information on how and by when you can serve a copy of your written statement on the firm:
