it isn't recognised as an A level as such, but it does carry UCAS points (56 for A*, 32 for a C for example) so look for Universities that make offers on UCAS points and not just specific A levels. https://www.ucas.com/ucas/tariff-calculator

There probably isnt a list as such You wil need to check universities that you are interested in.

Here is Bristol's policy

LIBF/IFS Diploma in Financial Studies (DipFS)
We accept the LIBF/IFS Diploma in Financial Studies (DipFS) instead of one A-level for all our undergraduate courses in Economics, Accounting and Finance and Business and Management subject areas.
The grading scale is the same as A-levels and would be considered on a like-for-like basis (for example, DipFS grade A would be required to replace an A-level at grade A). This qualification cannot be used to satisfy an A-level Mathematics or other subject-specific A-level requirement.
We do not accept this qualification for entry to any other undergraduate courses.
LIBF/IFS Certificate in Financial Studies (CeFS)
We do not accept this qualification for entry to any of our undergraduate courses.

Exeter do as well

When applicants achieves A grades in both the Certificate and Diploma combined we will consider this as equivalent to GCE A level Economics Grade A.*

There isn't 'a list', but it is accepted by many sensible Unis - just email them and ask if they will accept it for the course you are applying for - do it this week before they all close for Christmas/NY.
