Compliancy Services offers SARB firms AP training

Compliancy Services has developed an approved persons training programme specifically for sale and rent back firms currently getting their procedures in place for full authorisation.

The programme has been established to get inexperienced senior personnel ready for approval as a fit and proper person within a fully authorised firm.

Compliancy Services said the specialist sale and rent back arm of Compliancy Services was recently launched to help SARB firms deal with the often complex and time-consuming requirements of achieving and maintaining FSA authorisation.

Claire Wilkinson, retail director at Compliancy Services, said: “Preparation is the key to any successful application. The FSA has warned firms to apply for the full authorisation as soon as possible and not leave it until a couple of months before the 30th June 2010 deadline. This statement further illustrates the pressing need for firms to start getting their houses in order sooner rather than later.”
