The No Jargon Compliance Company

If you are looking for help with FSA Regulatory Compliance or looking for help in training your staff, you have come to the right site. Look no further. You have reached the One Stop Compliance Shop.

Compliance and regulation can we say, is not always viewed as the sexiest of subjects, and some working in this field may sound like they have eaten a regulatory encyclopedia for lunch. It can however be complex and especially since the advent of the Principle Based regulation - knowing which way to turn and exactly what it is you have to do is difficult. That's why we are here to help firms through the regulatory maze, in the simplist, and most cost effective way for your business.

We provide a wide range of services to the General Insurance Market.

We also provide training in Insurance technical subjects and also design and deliver a range of personal and business development courses. Please look through our site and talk to us to find out how we can help you and your firm.

We cannot fit everything in our shop window but here is a flavour of what we can do for you:

 

Better Business Compliance Consultancy

As we know the Insurance Market is an ever changing animal and our businesses have to move with the times. We need to be more and more open minded, creative and flexible than ever before. We cannot afford to stand still and need to look at new and innovative ways to provide the products and services to the people that need them in the right time. Sometimes we may feel regulatory factors stand in the way of us being able to do this. Talk to us first. We have first hand experience at helping firms through the maze and grasping what it is they have to do instead of what they cannot do!

For more details of the type of products and services we offer, please click on the relevant section.

If you cannot find what you are looking for in either the FSA Compliance Services or the Training Section, please do give us a call on 0161 870 6637 - we don't bite!

  • Health checks - We can check out your compliance status (as the saying goes "Prevention is better than cure") and give you a straight to the point report and feedback of where you stand against the FSA regulations and help you identify any areas of where you might be at risk of not complying.

  • Managing your Compliance - Let us introduce you to our unique Risk Management Programme (to help you stay on the right track with compliance).

  • Compliance and Regulatory Training - As well as periodic compliance update workshops we have a range of compliance and regulatory courses on offer (which can be held at your premises or off-site) and tailored to your business.

  • Treating Customers Fairly - let us take the pain out of you trying to prove you treat your customers fairly. We have a well established process which many of our clients have already been through and have found extremely valuable. We will hold your hand through the 3 stage process of Assessment + Action + Evaluation with regular reviews to help you prove that you are consistently treating your customers fairly. It is quite painless and TCF is here to stay.

  • Staff Training - This is one area that many firms worry about. "Are we doing too much, too little, how much will it cost, how do we do it, how often, how quickly, will it be sufficient for the FSA, do we have time for this, who do we use etc etc. Does this sound familiar? We can help you. We can take you through what is required - without the jargon!

  • Reviewing your Systems, Procedures and Documentation - help with completing your RMAR / GABRIEL, reviewing your website and financial promotions, mystery shopping, reviewing your sales and Complaints procedures.

  • Arrow and Themed visits - Consultancy support in preparing you and your firm for the visit or call.

  • Compliance Officer Support - Although many firms are fortunate to have a dedicated compliance team or personnel, some of our clients retain our services to support those in a compliance function as they value an "extra pair of eyes and ears" and the opportunity to talk through the issues they face in their role and receive a second opinion.

  • FSA Applications and Variations - Assistance for firms with new applications or changes to their registration.

  • Introducer and Appointed Representatives - Helping setting up contracts, agreements, monitoring procedures etc.

  • Making Safe Sales - Let us review your sales procedures and documents to ensure your are complying with the rules - especially if you sell add-ons!

  • Commercial Commission Disclosure - We can help you examine your business by taking you through a GAP analysis to examine what you have to do, and when and how to ensure you are meeting the industry guidance.

and more or less anything that helps YOU become and stay compliant with the FSA Rules and Regulations!
