The Financial Conduct Authority is inviting applications from senior practitioners at smaller regulated firms in the general insurance and consumer credit sectors to join its Smaller Business Practitioner Panel. The panel provides independent advice and challenge from the perspective of smaller firms, feeding into the FCA’s work during a period of change in UK financial services regulation. Its remit is to provide industry input that helps the FCA meet its strategic and operational objectives from a smaller business standpoint. Applications close at 11.59pm on 28 June 2026.
