2GENPRU applies to a collective portfolio management investment firm that is a BIPRU firm in parallel with IPRU-INV -link- 11 (see IPRU-INV -link-11.6).

8A firm should refer to GEN 2.2.13A R (cross-references in the Handbook) and GEN 2.2.23 R to GEN 2.2.25 G (cutover: application of provisions made by both the FCA and the PRA) when applying the rules and guidance in GENPRU.4

8As the FCA does not have the power to impose prudential rules and guidance on PRA-authorised persons, references to PRA-authorised persons or PRA rules that are included in FCA GENPRU provisions will not be relevant in the FCA's application of that provision, unless otherwise stated.
