Overview

Insurance distribution and intermediary activities can require FCA authorisation.

The application must reflect the products, distribution chain, customer base, remuneration and governance arrangements. Coutts Consultants treats uk insurance intermediary authorisation coordination as a defined professional engagement rather than a generic add-on.

We begin by understanding the client's commercial objective and reviewing insurance activities, products, customer types, permissions, remuneration, governance, professional indemnity and FCA evidence. We then assemble the appropriate information, coordinate the filing, application or specialist work, and manage queries through to a clear completion point. Where the work involves a reserved legal activity, regulated advice, audit, immigration advice or another protected professional function, execution is undertaken by an appropriately qualified or authorised UK professional.

Any approval, registration, licence, bank account or regulatory permission remains subject to the decision of the relevant authority or provider.
