We have the project management skills you would expect from larger consulting firms, but we bring a deeper technical understanding of regulation. And we like to think we’re friendlier.

We are on the FCA’s skilled person panel for S166 reviews, but have found that clients have come back to us in cheerier times on the basis of the work we have done.

Our work is often focussed on particular FCA themes – for example CASS and Suitability. Many clients come to us for help with prevention of financial crime. We do broader regulatory reviews and health checks. And we work with firms whose circumstances are in a state of flux, for example because of an acquisition, regulatory change – such as in consumer credit – or changes to proposition. We keep pace with innovation too and are advising clients on the practical a regulatory challenges of launching simplified advice solutions – so-called robo-advice.

We’re happy to carry out formal due diligence – from a regulatory perspective – on potential acquisition targets too.
