The team is also responsible for production of all related management information used by senior management to manage the Group’s regulatory position, including capital and liquidity forecasts under base case and stress tests. Second, the Group Prudential Risk Assessment team is responsible for production of a number of ‘Pillar 2’ documents, including the Group ICAAP and Recovery Plan and several ICARAs for solo UK regulated asset management firms.
