Our expertise

Our experienced, knowledgeable team helps firms with many types of insurance regulation issues on a daily basis. They know the importance of customer care and how essential it is to uphold a reputation. So, whether you want: a detailed assessment of your current position; help with the intricacies of SM&CR; a review of your existing suite of policies and procedures, financial promotions, operational risk framework; or support with AR compliance management, we’ll make sure you get practical, effective expert advice.

We advise clients ranging from new entrants needing FCA authorisation, to established firms looking for ongoing compliance support. Our clients include insurance brokers, insurance companies, Managing General Agents (MGAs), and other intermediaries involved in insurance mediation, such as motor dealerships, call centres, and FinTech operations.

Our guidance and support cover everything from adopting the FCA’s cornerstones of risk including governance, culture and control, to compliance monitoring and comprehensive compliance health checks. We can also help you:

  • Interpret and comply with the FCA Handbook
  • Monitor the compliance management of your Appointed Representatives (ARs) and Introducer Appointed Representatives (IARs)
  • Oversee your ongoing compliance with regulation including SYSC, ICOBs, CASS 5, MIPRU and the Insurance Act 2015
