Working in partnership with firms in key financial centres.

THE WAY COMPLIANCE
SHOULD BE

Supporting firms in a fast paced regulatory environment.

AUTHORISATION

When applying to a financial services regulator in the UK or the UAE to become authorised it is important that you get your application right first time. Effecta can assist you by ensuring that your documents cover all material aspects of the proposed business, management infrastructure and control environment so that the application can be properly assessed in the shortest time possible.

COMPLIANCE
RETAINER

Once authorised, you need to ensure that your firm can continue to meet the relevant regulatory requirements. Effecta’s consultants can assist in not only keeping your firms up to date with changes to the rules but also updating and implementing policies and procedures as well as monitoring their ongoing effectiveness. This support can be provided on a retained basis and in the UAE on an outsourced basis as well.

POLICIES & PROCEDURES

At Effecta we provide bespoke policies and procedures to fit your business operations and meet both external and internal requirements.

ADVISORY

When Effecta provides regulatory advice, we provide advice which is bespoke to you and your firm. Business requirements are unique and implementing them in an effective and efficient way is always going to require a solution tailored to your business operations.

COMPLIANCE MONITORING

Effecta assists clients in the design, enhancement and maintenance of their compliance monitoring programmes.
