At Ecompli we specialise in providing FSA Compliance Support to Insurance, Mortgage and Claim Handling Firms

COMPLIANCE NOTICE: Sale and Rent Back FSA Application Support

All firms that currently offer Sale and Rent Back (SRB) schemes that aren’t currently authorised by the Financial Services Authority will need to submit a thorough application to the FSA so that they can continue to trade.

Firms that are already authorised who want to carry out SRB activities will need to obtain an interim Variation of Permission (VOP).

Firms will need to apply for the interim permission before the closing date on the 1st August 2009 and the FSA have stated that they will not consider incomplete or late submissions, therefore firms have a limited time period to submit their applications.

At Ecompli we provide a comprehensive affordable FSA application support service that guides you through the whole application process.

If you would like more information on how we can help you then please contact us on 01254 675 674 or register your interest and we will contact you directly.

Tip of the week

Where a firm has only one adviser, a locum should be appointed to service clients in the event of the adviser’s undue absence.

When deciding who is to act as the locum care should be taken to ensure they are:

  • Capable of stepping into the business and advising clients so that clients’ interests are not prejudiced;
  • Trustworthy, honest and reliable;
  • Ready, willing and able to assist when required to do so;
  • Willing to operate solely for the benefit of the business and that of the clients;
  • Authorised in the same specialist areas as the adviser.

You can find further details about appointing a locum and what is required within the General Business Manual contained under the General Rules Section of our Website.
