FCA Smaller Business Practitioner Panel vacancies: general insurance and consumer credit

Context

The FCA is inviting applications from senior practitioners at smaller regulated firms in the general insurance and consumer credit sectors to join the Smaller Business Practitioner Panel (SBPP).  The SBPP is established under FSMA 2000 and is independent of the FCA.  Reporting to the FCA Board and engaging across the Regulator, the Panel contributes to the development of FCA strategy and policy.  It offers advice and early input on FCA work, and highlights issues of “…major significance or controversy affecting smaller regulated businesses”.

Key points to note and next actions

  • The SBPP provides independent advice and challenge from the perspective of smaller firms, helping to shape the FCA’s work at a time of significant change in UK financial services regulation.
  • Its key remit is to provide input to the FCA from the industry to help the FCA meet our strategic and operational objectives from a smaller business standpoint.
  • The deadline for applications is 11.59pm on Sunday 28 June 2026.
