The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, commonly known as Martyn’s Law, is now in effect. Following a long period of campaigning and advocacy, it achieved Royal Assent in April 2025, and it is now in its 24-month implementation phase. Businesses must be compliant by May 2027, or will likely face severe penalties for non-compliance.

The upcoming insurance renewal season between March and July represents a natural inflection point. It is when many businesses assess security measures, update their risk documentation, and evidence controls – all of which will be central to demonstrating compliance under Martyn’s Law. Therefore, addressing any gaps now is essential to ensure that businesses have enough time to strengthen preparedness before the law becomes enforceable.Martyn’s Law: the time to prepare is now

Accountants: Key considerations for implementing AI

The adoption of digital tools and artificial intelligence (AI) in the accountancy sector has experienced exponential growth in recent years. According to the Thomson Reuters Generative AI in Professional Services Report 2025, 21 percent of accountancy firms were using AI in 2025, representing a year-on-year increase of 13 percent, the highest increase of any professional services sector surveyed. Firms of all sizes are now embracing third-party AI tools or expending significant resource to develop their own.

For that reason, we have set out below some key areas of risk that accounting firms might wish to keep in mind when grappling with the development and implementation of AI tools across their firm, ensuring that any roll-out is conducted in a manner that is both responsible and compliant with professional and regulatory expectations.
