Context
The FCA has updated its Skilled Persons Reviews web page to include a link to the Q3 2025/26 Skilled Persons Reports data. The data shows that there were eleven reports commissioned, compared to the six commissioned in the previous quarter.
Key points to note
- Three of the eleven reports commissioned were in the insurance sector.
- All of the reports commissioned in Q3 were commissioned directly by the FCA with the Skilled Person; ten of them involved ‘Portfolio’ supervision firms (i.e., firms which do not have a direct FCA Supervisor).
- Four of the eleven related to controls and risk management frameworks, three related to financial crime, and two in relation to governance, accountability, strategy and culture.
