Investment Firm Prudential Regime (IFPR)
In January 2022, the UK adopted a more proportionate and fit-for-purpose prudential regime for investment firms known as the Investment Firms Prudential Regime (IFPR). The IFPR requires applicable firms to complete an internal capital adequacy and risk assessment (ICARA) process to assess their capital and liquidity requirements for mitigating harm.
