The Prudential Control Authority issued Instruction No. 2012-I-07 to mandate that regulated financial institutions complete a standardized questionnaire detailing their compliance with customer protection rules. The instruction defines the scope of applicable entities, specifies the five-section structure of the questionnaire covering general data, internal controls, and complaints, and establishes strict submission deadlines and approval procedures. It further outlines exemptions for certain B2B-focused entities and provides detailed methodological guidance for both banking and insurance sectors.
