What types of businesses do you assist? Our expertise extends to Consumer Credit/P2P Firms, Credit Unions, and Electronic Money Issuers/Payment Institutions. With a comprehensive network of consultants specialized in various regulated sectors, we're equipped to support a wide range of businesses. In instances where your needs fall outside our direct expertise, we're committed to connecting you with another consultant who can provide the assistance you require.

Do you provide outsourced compliance assurance and auditing services? Absolutely. Recognizing the complexities and resource constraints that can make compliance daunting, we collaborate with you to tailor outsourced services to your specific requirements. It's important to note, however, that while our outsourced services significantly aid in managing compliance, they do not transfer the ultimate responsibility for compliance from your Senior Management Team and Board of Directors.
FAQ's

What is the process to start an FCA Application? To start an FCA application, firms must demonstrate readiness, willingness, and organisation to comply with regulations, including having final versions of all documents and arrangements in place from day one of authorisation. The application is submitted via the FCA's Connect system, and firms must be prepared for a detailed assessment process, which includes providing complete and signed forms, preparing financial information, and demonstrating operational readiness. The assessment timeline varies, with a complete application usually assessed within 6 months, but incomplete applications can take up to 12 months.

What training options are available? Our training portfolio is diverse, encompassing online, in-person, and e-learning platform formats. We specialize in crafting both regulatory and customized training sessions covering topics such as Governance, Senior Management Certification Regime (SMCR), Operational Resilience, Consumer Duty, Complaints Handling & Management, and Artificial Intelligence in Financial Services, among others.
