    Fine

    On 21 December 2021 the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) issued a Final Notice imposing a financial penalty of £5,376,000 on Metro Bank plc. Metro Bank settled during the PRA’s Discount Stage and therefore qualified for a 30% settlement discount; without that discount the penalty would have been £7,680,000. The PRA’s Final Notice on the Bank of England website sets out the reasons for the penalty; the FCA register entry does not reproduce those reasons and does not record any customer redress or tribunal appeal.
