Explanation |
Submitting form |
The FCA will consider A to have taken reasonable care if it enters into a contract with B under which B is responsible for ensuring that the relevant FCA-designated senior management functions are performed by FCA-approved SMF managers, and that it is reasonable for A to rely on this. |
Firm B submits FCA-approved persons forms on behalf of firm A. |

Outsourcing by A to B (both being a member of the same United Kingdomgroup and each having its registered office in the United Kingdom) |
See SUP 10C.3.9G |
Either A or B may submit FCA-approved persons forms on behalf of firms in the group (see SUP 15.7.8G). |
(i) A to B, where B: (a) is not an authorised person; and (b) is not part of the same group as A; or (ii) A to B, where A is a branch of an overseas firm in the United Kingdom, and B is an overseasundertaking of the same group; or (iii) A to B, where A is a UK authorised subsidiary of an overseas firm and B is an overseasundertaking of the same group. |
Responsibility for (as opposed to the performance of) any activity outsourced to B will remain with A. See SYSC 8. |
A ensures that an individual approved by the FCA or the PRA to perform a designated senior management function has responsibility for the outsourcedarrangement and A submits a form in relation to that individual. |
