The department undertakes, and supports the rest of the FCA in undertaking, high quality financial and risk analysis of the full spectrum of FCA prudentially regulated firms. This includes assessing the financial resilience of firms, both for large firms and on a portfolio basis, conducting thematic assessments of risk management practices, monitoring and responding to issues as they arise.

You will have the opportunity to work with and influence a wide range of industry professionals, both internally and externally to the FCA we place great value on your learning and we offer world-class development opportunities which will assist you in achieving your career aspirations.

- Help shape the post-Covid, post-Brexit regulatory and supervisory framework for 49,000 financial services firms in the UK.

About the FCA

At the FCA, we’re creating a fair and more resilient financial system. We’re establishing more transparent relationships between financial services and their customers, building trust in financial markets and protecting vulnerable consumers.

Divisional Information

The FCA is the prudential regulator of 49,000 financial services firms. We want resilient firms who have financial resources that are commensurate to their activities and that minimise the potential for harm - both in life and in failure. Firms will fail, but firm failure should not be unexpected and should be orderly.

The Financial Resilience Department (FRD) is one of the specialist departments in the FCA. FRD’s mission is to provide high quality prudential expertise across all sectors, and support the FCA more broadly, in seeking to assess and mitigate the prudential causes of harm. Through this we deliver public value.

Our ambition is to create a diverse and inclusive workplace that reflects the society we serve, helping us to be a better regulator.
