Navigating Regulatory Change – What 2025 Holds for challenger firms and Building Societies

May 13, 2025 11:00 AM London BST

The Strong and Simple framework, SDDT regime, and Interim Capital Regime reflect the UK’s shift toward proportionate regulation for smaller banks and building societies, aiming to ease compliance while preserving financial stability.

These firms are well-placed to benefit, though there's concern that risks removed from Pillar 1 could resurface under Pillar 2A. Divergence from Basel 3.1 may also create challenges in comparability and reporting, while broader UK-EU-US regulatory differences could increase complexity for smaller UK firms, particularly those with international exposure.

Speakers include:

  • Ruth Doubleday, Head of Prudential Regulation, Building Societies Association
  • Ronan Donnelly, Risk & Reporting Specialist, Suade
  • Moderated by Ollie Hooper, Strategic Initiatives, Suade

This will be a valuable session for firms navigating the balance between proportionality and risk under the new regime.
