18AU.K.In this Part of this Schedule “the appropriate UK regulator” means—

(a)where the UK firm is a PRA-authorised person, the PRA;

(b)in any other case, the FCA.]

EstablishmentU.K.

19(1)[F132Subject to [F133sub-paragraphs (5ZA) [F134, (5ZB)] [F135, (5A) and (7BC)]],] a UK firm may not exercise an EEA right to establish a branch unless three conditions are satisfied.U.K.

(2)The first is that the firm has given the [F136appropriate UK regulator], in the specified way, notice of its intention to establish a branch (“a notice of intention”) which—

(a)identifies the activities which it seeks to carry on through the branch; and

(b)includes such other information as may be specified.

(3)[F137Subject to sub-paragraph (5B), the] activities identified in a notice of intention may include activities which are not regulated activities.

[F138(4)The second is that—

(a)the [F136appropriate UK regulator] has given notice in specified terms (“a consent notice”) to the host state regulator; and

(b) where the firm is a management company which wishes to pursue the activity of collective portfolio management referred to in Annex II to the UCITS directive, the [F136appropriate UK regulator] has provided to the host state regulator—

(i) confirmation that the firm has been authorised as a management company pursuant to the provisions of the UCITS directive;

(ii)a description of the scope of the management company's authorisation; and

(iii) details of any restriction on the types of UCITS that the management company is authorised to manage.]

[F139(5)The third is—

(a) if the EEA right in question derives from the insurance mediation directive [F140or the mortgages directive], that one month has elapsed beginning with the date on which the firm received notice, in accordance with sub-paragraph (11), that the [F136appropriate UK regulator] has given a consent notice;

(b)in any other case, that either—

(i) the host state regulator has notified the firm (or, where the EEA right in question derives from [F141the Solvency 2 Directive], the [F136appropriate UK regulator]) of the applicable provisions; or

(ii)two months have elapsed beginning with the date on which the [F136appropriate UK regulator] gave the consent notice.]

[F142(5ZA) This paragraph does not apply to [F143a UK firm which falls within the second sub-paragraph of Article 2(1) of the Solvency 2 Directive].]

[F144(5ZB)This paragraph does not apply to a UK firm having an EEA right which is subject to the conditions of the emission allowance auctioning regulation, in respect of its exercise of that EEA right.]

[F145(5A)If—

(a) the EEA right in question derives from the insurance mediation directive, and

(b) the EEA State in which the firm intends to establish a branch has not notified the Commission, in accordance with Article 6(2) of that directive, of its wish to be informed of the intention of any UK firm to establish a branch in its territory,

the second and third conditions do not apply (and so the firm may establish the branch to which its notice of intention relates as soon as the first condition is satisfied).]

[F146(5B) If the firm is a UK investment firm, a notice of intention may not include ancillary services unless such services are to be provided in connection with the carrying on of one or more investment services and activities.

(5C) In sub-paragraph (5B) “ancillary services” has the meaning given in Article 4.1.3 of the markets in financial instruments directive.]

[F151(6A) If the firm's EEA right derives from the UCITS directive and the first condition is satisfied, the [F136appropriate UK regulator] must give a consent notice and information about the compensation scheme to the host state regulator unless it has reason to doubt the adequacy of the firm's resources or its administrative structure, and must do so within two months beginning with the date on which it received the firm's notice of intention.]

(7)If the firm’s EEA right derives from [F152the Solvency 2 Directive] and the first condition is satisfied, the [F136appropriate UK regulator] must give a consent notice unless it has reason—

(a)to doubt the adequacy of the firm’s resources or its administrative structure, or

(b)to question the reputation, qualifications or experience of the directors or managers of the firm or the person proposed as the branch’s authorised agent for the purposes of [F153that directive],

in relation to the business to be conducted through the proposed branch.

[F154(7A)If—

(a) the firm’s EEA right derives from the insurance mediation directive,

(b)the first condition is satisfied, and

(c)the second condition applies,

the [F136appropriate UK regulator] must give a consent notice, and must do so within one month beginning with the date on which it received the firm’s notice of intention.]

[F155(7B) If the firm is a UK investment firm and the first condition is satisfied, the [F136appropriate UK regulator] must give a consent notice to the host state regulator within three months beginning with the date on which it received the firm's notice of intention unless the [F136appropriate UK regulator] has reason to doubt the adequacy of the firm's resources or its administrative structure.]

[F156(7BA)Sub-paragraph (7BB) applies where—

(a)the firm’s EEA right derives from the alternative investment fund managers directive,

(b)the first condition is satisfied, and

(c)the appropriate UK regulator is satisfied that the firm complies, and will continue to comply, with—

(i)the provisions implementing the alternative investment fund managers directive, and

(ii)any directly applicable EU regulation made under that directive.

(b)send with that notice confirmation that the firm has been authorised by it pursuant to [F157Article 6.1 of] the alternative investment fund managers directive, and

(c)immediately notify the firm that it has given the consent notice to the host state regulator.

(7BC)If the firm’s EEA right derives from the alternative investment fund managers directive, the third condition does not apply.]

[F158(7BD)If the firm’s EEA right derives from the mortgages directive and the first condition is satisfied, the appropriate UK regulator must give a consent notice to the host state regulator within one month beginning with the date on which it received the firm’s notice of intention.]

[F159(7C)Where the PRA is the appropriate UK regulator, it must consult the FCA before deciding whether to give a consent notice, except where sub-paragraph (7A) applies.

(7D)Where the FCA is the appropriate UK regulator, it must consult the PRA before deciding whether to give a consent notice in relation to a UK firm whose immediate group includes a PRA-authorised person.]

(8)If the [F136appropriate UK regulator] proposes to refuse to give a consent notice it must give the firm concerned a warning notice.

(9)If the firm’s EEA right derives from [F160the Solvency 2 Directive] and the host state regulator has notified it of the applicable provisions, the [F136appropriate UK regulator] must inform the firm of those provisions.

(10)Rules may specify the procedure to be followed by the [F136appropriate UK regulator] in exercising its functions under this paragraph.

(11)If the [F136appropriate UK regulator] gives a consent notice it must give written notice that it has done so to the firm concerned.

[F161(11A)If the firm’s EEA right derives from the mortgages directive, the appropriate UK regulator must give the written notice referred to in sub-paragraph (11) at the same time as it gives the consent notice to the host state regulator in accordance with sub-paragraph (7BD).]

(12)If the [F136appropriate UK regulator] decides to refuse to give a consent notice—

(a)it must, [F162within the relevant period], give the person who gave that notice a decision notice to that effect; F163...

[F164(aa)the appropriate UK regulator must in the case of a credit institution notify EBA and the Commission; and]

(b)that person may refer the matter to the Tribunal.

[F165(12ZA) If the firm's EEA right derives from the UCITS directive, the [F136appropriate UK regulator] must inform [F166ESMA and] the Commission if it decides to refuse to give a consent notice, giving the reasons for that refusal.]

[F167(12A) In sub-paragraph (12), “the relevant period” means—

(a) if the firm’s EEA right derives from the UCITS directive [F168or the alternative investment fund managers directive], two months beginning with the date on which the [F136appropriate UK regulator] received the notice of intention;

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
