In relation to AUKSSL (which is an authorized insurance intermediary), the test for control is the same, however, there is only one relevant threshold of 20% or more.

Similar to PRA and/or FCA approval, an entity seeking to acquire “control” of or increase its control over AMAL is required to obtain Lloyd’s prior consent (and the same thresholds noted above apply in this context).

Controllers must notify the PRA and/or FCA, and/or Lloyd’s (as applicable) in writing of a reduction or cessation of control before effecting the change, although regulatory approval is not required.
