Once a quarter, we consult on proposed miscellaneous amendments to our Handbook. These tend to be minor changes but we still want to get your feedback on our proposals.

What we are consulting on
We are proposing to make changes to:
- FEES 3 (variations of permission) to provide payment initiation and account services
- DEPP and EG to reflect the transposition of the PRIIPs Regulation

- IFPRU 2.2 to ensure full implementation of the Capital Requirements Directive (CRD)
- clarify how firms may provide personal projections in relation to the PRIIPs key information document
- the economic assumptions in COBS 13 Annex 2 following periodic review
- our SUP regulatory reporting requirements
- address a potential barrier to consumers accessing retirement interest-only mortgages and correct an error in the definition of ‘lifetime mortgage’
