What UK Insurers, MGAs and Brokers Need in 2026

The FCA has moved from checking that firms have a Consumer Duty framework to testing whether that framework can be proved to work. Most firms are still trying to evidence outcomes with spreadsheets and email chains, which cannot show what is happening to customers across a distribution chain. This post sets out the tooling capabilities your compliance function needs to monitor outcomes, assess fair value and evidence oversight of MGAs, brokers and coverholders. It also explains why the distribution chain, rather than your internal process, is where most evidencing efforts break down.

Regulatory Change Management: Building a Framework That Keeps Pace With the FCA

Regulatory change management has stopped being a tracking exercise and become an evidencing one. The FCA's 2026 priorities extend supervisory attention into delegated authority arrangements, at the same time as the regulator works to simplify large parts of the rulebook, and simplification does not reduce your workload, it relocates it. Most UK insurance firms are still running this process on spreadsheets, with no consistent record of who assessed a change, who signed it off, or whether it reached the partners trading under their authority. This piece sets out what a regulatory change management framework capable of surviving a supervisory review actually looks like, and where the generic tooling market falls short of the insurance distribution chain.
