At MEMA, in discussions with our customers (current and prospective) we identified a common theme, understanding the regulatory landscape is problematic and requires clearer descriptions aid understanding.
As part of guiding your understanding of the regulatory landscape, we are releasing a series of articles to help you understand what you need to obtain FCA authorisation or required to vary your permissions.
We will initially focus on consumer credit focusing on the activities around
- Credit Broking
- Debt Counselling
- Payment Services
We plan to release many more topics, so stay tuned!
Do reach out to our team for any other topics you would like to see covered.
