FCA Authorisations operating service metrics 2026/27 Q1
Why this matters
The publication type is set as a report, and the content is operating service metrics (RAG statuses, determination rates, quartile timings) rather than new rules or obligations. It covers authorisations across several application categories, including payments and e-money, so no single sector is supported and 'General' applies. The topic is authorisation and licensing. It applies to firms seeking FCA authorisation, so 'All Firms' is used. Urgency is null because the content is informational and imposes no obligation or deadline. The 3/4MLD and 5MLD data correction is noted but does not change the overall score.
