Insurance Regulatory

The insurance regulatory landscape is becoming increasingly complex, driven by evolving requirements, heightened scrutiny and growing pressure to innovate.

Businesses must respond quickly while managing risk, engaging with regulators and adapting to changing market dynamics.
We combine specialist insurance sector knowledge with strong regulatory expertise and international reach.

This enables us to advise on complex, multi-jurisdictional matters while delivering clear, commercially relevant outcomes for clients.

What we do

We support insurers, MGAs, brokers, Lloyd’s market participants and new entrants across all aspects of insurance regulation, including:

• Authorisation and regulatory perimeter
• Product design, distribution and governance
• Conduct and prudential requirements
• Regulatory investigations and FCA/PRA engagement
• Cross-border and multi-jurisdictional issues

Our advice is commercially focused and grounded in the realities of the insurance market, supporting both day-to-day operations and strategic decision-making.

Regulatory considerations are central to many strategic insurance activities, including transactions, restructurings and market entry.

Our Insurance Regulatory team works closely with colleagues across CMS’s Insurance practice to provide joined-up advice where regulatory, corporate and commercial issues intersect.

We help insurance businesses navigate regulatory complexity with confidence, enabling them to respond to change and move forward with clarity.
