What we do

From FCA authorisation and advisory services to compliance, risk assessment, strategy and technology solutions

FCA Authorisation

We help firms achieve FCA authorisation quickly and easily. We have a proven track record of success in helping firms get FCA authorised, and we are experts in the FCA's requirements and regulations.

Financial Crime

We will evaluate your Anti-Financial Crime (AFC) programme and work with you dealing with regulatory inquiries, risk and regulation, CDD/ EDD processes and shaping your approach towards anti-bribery and corruption risk.

Payment services

We will assist you in acquiring the payment service permissions required from the FCA in order for you to get up and running. Whether your focus is as a merchant acquirer, currency exchange, e-money, money remittance, or if you require a combination of permissions, we can support you.

Compliance advisory

We will advise you on how you can meet regulatory compliance excellence. We will work with your team to ensure services are delivered in a clear and economical way.

Regulatory training

We support your team with a range of courses focusing on the various rules and regulations of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). If you prefer, we also provide courses for your team to whitelabel internally.

Strategic Foresight

We will equip your firm with data-driven strategic foresight to preempt change, outmaneuver competitors, and lead evolving markets through rigorous environmental scanning.

Success Stories

From FCA authorisation and advisory services to compliance, risk assessment, strategy and technology solutions

We had a tight deadline to submit the FCA application and without their support and assistance we would not have been able to submit the application fully and within the deadline applied. We are now successfully authorised.
