Our Fixed Fee Options

Below is a summary of our typical fee level and structure for different Application types (FCA Application fees are separate). The fees quoted below include ongoing ad-hoc/general compliance support for the business in question – i.e. matters which can typically be addressed by phone or e-mail.

Fixed Cost is confirmed in proposal, subject to sight of your Business Plan/Approach Document/Positioning paper/Whitepaper.

While many projects are run on a consultancy rates per day/week/month (per diem) we believe that new businesses appreciate fixed consultant fees in the UK.
