Our expertise
The mortgage market has been subject to significant change and scrutiny in recent years. The 2016 Mortgages Market Study highlighted possible barriers to innovation opening doors for further consultation and was followed by the Mortgage Credit Directive in 2016. New firms are being impacted by the FCA’s Transformation Programme, which introduced the Regulatory Transactions Committee (RTC) to the authorisation process resulting in greater scrutiny at the gateway and longer authorisation times, while those already authorised are having to consider the new Consumer Duty rules alongside their ready established ongoing regulatory obligations.
With a number of obligations to consider you may need help and advice regarding a new sales initiative or a change in the structure of your business. Our approach is that compliance should be an enabler rather than a blocker to growth, we will always seek to help you find a compliant way to achieve your objectives. If you are a new entrant to the market looking for support with an upcoming FCA authorisation, or you are looking for support with your ongoing compliance, we would be happy to support you.
