FCA Authorisation is a specialist service from Compliance Consultant, helping firms obtain FCA authorisation and Variations of Permission since 2000. Generic templates rarely survive a case officer's first questions, so our qualified consultants build a bespoke application pack around your business model: regulatory business plan, financial projections, policies, procedures and SMCR arrangements. We project-manage the process end to end, working alongside your lawyers and accountants, and support you through the FCA's online portal, interpreting case officer queries and shaping your responses until a decision is reached. An incomplete application runs on a longer statutory clock; a well-prepared one avoids that delay. Sectors include consumer credit, mortgages, insurance, payment services, investment and wealth management, and claims management. Every engagement is a fixed project fee, net of VAT.
