FCA and PRA dawn raids: a practical guide

Resource type: Practice note

Status: Maintained

Jurisdiction: United Kingdom

In this practice note, Aaron Stephens, a partner, and Rachel Aikens, a senior associate, in Berwin Leighton Paisner LLP's Financial Services Investigations and Enforcements practice, provide a brief guide to the practical issues that lawyers should bear in mind when advising clients in relation to dawn raids carried out by the FCA or PRA.

The note outlines the key steps to be taken from the moment a lawyer becomes aware that a client's premises have just been raided by the FCA or the PRA, throughout the raid itself and, finally, once the raid has ended. The note has also been designed so that it can be read as a refresher in the taxi on the way to a client’s premises that have just been raided. 

Aaron Stephens and Rachel Aikens, Berwin Leighton Paisner LLP
