Compliance reports
If you are a PMI insurer or broker, each year you must, by law, submit a compliance report to the CMA by 1 February each year (the Annual PMI Compliance Statement). This obligation arises from the CMA’s Private Motor Insurance Market Investigation Order 2015.
The Annual PMI Compliance Statement can now be submitted via an online form and by uploading the tables of Average No Claims Bonus (NCB) Discounts.
If you are a PMI insurer or broker, please email PMIFormRequest2024@cma.gov.uk for more information about how to submit your compliance report.
If your business offers both insurance and brokerage services, the relevant instructions for you to follow should be determined on the basis of the primary role of your business.
When you submit your compliance report via the online reporting form you will receive an automatic response as a confirmation of receipt.
More guidance can be found on the Private Motor Insurance Market Investigation Order 2015 page. If you have any problems using the form, any queries, or if you need to report a breach, please contact the CMA on: pmi.order@cma.gov.uk
