We have been advised by the FCA as follows:
“Following our recent revalorisation of the application fees earlier this year, on 24 January we advised that we would be introducing a new charge of £250 for standalone long Form A applications both for Senior Manager Functions and Controlled Function for Appointed Representatives.
We consulted on this new charge in November 2020 as part of CP20/22 and reconfirmed our intention to introduce the fee in a Policy Statement PS22/1.
We are now in a position to update you to confirm the new charge will take effect on 27 May 2022.
For more information please refer to the Handbook Notice.”
