Senior Managers & Certification Regime (SM&CR)
The SMCR Working Group will understand and address the current issues with the extension of the Senior Managers & Certification Regime (SM&CR) to all regulated firms.
Claire Cornell Johnson, Technical Policy Manager (Investment Savings) leads on this work at TISA.
Areas of focus
The group has established 4 sub-groups to the main SM&CR Working Group to allow a broad input of SME knowledge in the following areas:
- Individuals / HR (chaired by Anthony Epstein, Independent)
- Senior Managers (chaired by Katharine Harle, Dentons LLP)
- Firms (chaired by Katharine Harle, Dentons LLP)
- Ownership (chaired by Will Baker, Sopra Steria)
The focus of those sub-groups is to produce good practice, guides and useful information in relation to specific areas of the regime where guidance has not been provided by FCA or firms would benefit from additional information to aid implementation.
