Serving Edinburgh

FCA Compliance Consultants in Edinburgh

MEMA provides FCA authorisation and compliance support to firms in Edinburgh, one of the UK's largest financial centres. Our ex-FCA regulators work with the city's asset managers, advisers and finance businesses on the full range of regulatory obligations.

Supporting regulated firms in Scotland

Edinburgh is a major UK financial hub with deep strength in asset and fund management, life and pensions, banking and investment management. We support authorised fund managers and investment firms with COBS and prudential obligations, wealth managers and advisers with suitability and Consumer Duty, and newer entrants entering Scotland's investment ecosystem. The concentration of larger, more complex firms means SMCR governance and financial crime controls are frequent areas of focus for our Edinburgh work.

How we work with Edinburgh firms

MEMA is a London-based consultancy led by ex-FCA regulators. We serve Edinburgh firms remotely — compliance monitoring, policy drafting, authorisation applications and ongoing advisory are all delivered securely by video and document sharing — with on-site visits arranged whenever they add value. You get direct regulatory experience without the cost of an in-house compliance function or a local retainer premium.
