Further to a 2023 joint HMT/FCA consultation on replacing the MMFRs, it has been announced that the Government will now lay legislation as soon as parliamentary time allows to establish the new regulatory framework, under which most requirements for UK MMFs will be set out in FCA rules and guidance. This will include guidance setting out expectations that UK MMFs hold higher levels of liquidity. The new regime is expected to be in place by Q4 2026, subject to Parliamentary approval, and FCA will issue a statement shortly with further details on its plans.
