Sometimes, Authorisation Is NOT The Answer

We are often approached by start-ups and individuals who want to get FCA authorisation but who have little or no experience. Much as we could take them down the path of authorisation (only to be rejected later on), we don’t. We recommend they either get a couple of years experience working in the chosen sector or, if they are confident enough, to try an incubator or nursery company, acting as an Appointed Representative for the parent entity.

We list some companies that may be worth trying below, but have no connection with them or receive any benefit from them at all.

We wish you the very best of luck with your future!
