The Sector Response Framework (SRF) provides a structured mechanism for the UK financial sector to coordinate and respond collectively to systemic incidents. It describes the operational, tactical, and strategic levels of response, supported by Sector Response Groups, FMI Crisis Committees, and the Cross Market Business Continuity Group (CMBCG). The framework includes escalation triggers, roles and responsibilities, and integrates with the Authorities’ Response Framework (ARF). It also references supporting tools such as the Industry Incident Lexicon, liquidity facilities, and contingency playbooks to aid sector-wide resilience and decision-making.
