The FCA Directory AT A GLANCE

On 9th December 2019, the FCA Register stopped showing details of advisers and pension transfer specialists at directly authorised (‘DA’) firms. Now, in respect of DA firms, the Register shows only the details of individuals who hold Senior Management Functions. Firms are still able to view historic authorisations by selecting individuals, previous involvement and authorised individuals prior to the 9th December can be viewed. With effect from 9th December 2019, DA firms must populate the new directory with information on ‘Directory Persons’, including Certification Staff and mortgage advisers. The information firms provide must be complete and accurate with effect from 9th December 2019 but firms have until 9th December 2020 to actually upload/input the information. Advisers and Pension Transfer Specialists at appointed representatives will continue to be shown on the Register, although their principals will also have to upload >Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Page 11 Page 12
