Regulatory Hosting for Appointed Representatives and Investment Managers
We provide a comprehensive regulatory hosting solution for emerging managers, advisers, and introducers seeking a cost-effective and compliant route to market.
Our practitioner-led approach ensures that every aspect of your business—from onboarding to ongoing supervision—is handled with precision and diligence. Since 2019, we’ve built a reputation for excellence, helping clients navigate complex regulations while focusing on what matters most: growing their business.
As FCA- and NFA-regulated investment managers and advisers, we are offering:
- Appointed Representative Services – enabling you to promote, advise on, and arrange a wide range of financial products under our regulatory umbrella.
- Seconded Trader Framework – allowing you to manage investments within a robust, fully compliant trading environment.
We have been hosting emerging investment managers and promoters since 2019, managing over USD 100 million.
How it Works
We make regulatory hosting simple, structured, and efficient:
Step 1 – Discovery & Scoping
We review your business model, target clients, and required permissions.
Step 2 – Due Diligence & Risk Assessment
Fitness, propriety, competence checks, and compliance framework alignment.
Step 3 – Onboarding & FCA/NFA Application
We prepare agreements, define scope, and submit required applications and registrations to the FCA and NFA.
Step 4 – Go Live Under Our Permissions
Operate as an Appointed Representative or Seconded Trader with full compliance oversight.
Step 5 – Ongoing Supervision & Support
Continuous monitoring, activity reviews, and regulatory updates and training to keep you compliant and fit for growth.
