On April 23, 2024, the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) published the outcomes of a thematic review of banks' risk management practices related to private equity (PE) financing activities. This article summarises the key areas of improvement and provides specific action points that small- and medium-sized banks may consider as part of their risk management practices.

In this webinar, we will provide an overview of the key requirements banks must take account of with respect to their current or planned future relationships with deposit aggregators. Specifically, this will include: Prudential risk: liquidity risk management and liquidity stress testing implications; Liquidity regulatory reporting: implications for calculation and treatment of deposits; and, Depositor protection (Financial Services Compensation Scheme coverage), and third party and outsourcing risk.
