FSA Authorisation

At CCL, we manage your FSA application from start to finish - on time, thoroughly and professionally. 

Because with the right advice and training, you can be sure you’ve addressed all the requirements of FSA authorisation. What’s more, you will lay down the right platform for a successful and robust business.

FSA Approval for Individuals

It's essential that people working in certain areas are approved by the FSA for that function.

These areas include:

• Governing functions
• Required functions
• Significant management functions
• Customer functions

The person must meet the FSA's fit and proper standards - as well as being shown to be competent for the position. As you might expect, the approval process can be complicated.

Need help with registration, or unsure who should be approved? We can take you through the entire process, with a wide range of consultancy and training services.
