Calimere Point's role in IFPR Regulatory Compliance for UK Investment Firm

Our client, a UK-based investment firm, engaged Calimere Point to assist with their IFPR regulatory submission. The IFPR, introduced by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and enforced from January 1, 2022, is a significant part of the prudential framework for MiFID investment firms.

Navigating complex regulations, delivering compliance excellence

Benefiting from our regulatory experience, Calimere Point worked alongside our client's senior management to ensure compliance with these intricate IFPR regulations. This project highlights our dedication to supporting our clients in helping to navigate the complexities of the regulatory landscape.

Data quality and the accuracy of regulatory reporting continues to be a focus area for the regulator. It is, therefore, important that internal process arrangements implemented to meet these new reporting requirements are reviewed to ensure that they are reliable, with proactive enhancements made where deficiencies are identified.

Challenges

Compliance with IFPR Regulation Metrics Reporting

The IFPR regulation mandated firms to implement a revised set of metrics and report them to regulators through quarterly submissions. Ensuring strict compliance with the intricate requirements of IFPR regulations and seamlessly integrating the revised metrics into the firm's reporting process posed a significant challenge.

Accuracy and Transparency in Business Reporting

Our client aimed to guarantee their full compliance with IFPR regulations and sought to present a transparent and accurate representation of their business activities. The challenge was to not only navigate the complexities of IFPR regulations but also to ensure that the quarterly submissions provided a true and fair view of the client's business operations, fostering confidence among regulators and stakeholders.
