Waivers and modifications by consent

We provide a number of waivers and modifications by consent for different firms. Learn more about each one and the types of firm that are eligible.

Who is eligible and how to apply

We offer waivers and modifications by consent when an unmodified rule in our Handbook doesn't meet the circumstances of a particular category of firm. When this happens, we publicise this so that relevant firms can take advantage of the waiver.

Every month we update the list of available waivers and modifications by consent below.

If a modification by consent applies to your firm, you can notify us to take advantage of the modification rather than complete an application form. To do this, follow the instructions on the page for each modification.

We may have already notified your firm about a modification if it fits a particular category.
