Regulatory Readiness Reviews

Challenge

How do I know how ready I am to be authorised and regulated?

Solution

TCF can conduct a high level to in depth, depending on your need, review of your existing and planned business arrangements. This covers operational business and governance as well as compliance arrangements. Using this review, TCF will take your board/management/founders through conclusions aiming at helping you make effective choices and to put the necessary arrangements in place.

Alternatively: TCF has developed a “self-assessment” authorisation assessment questionnaire. Completing the questionnaire and returning it to TCF will trigger the development of a comprehensive report that outlines the nature and quantity of work required to align the business to match the regulator’s expectations.
