On the matter of ‘status disclosure’ and the cut-over to the FCA (see article ‘Out With The Old…’) firms should not overlook the need to update their stationery when necessary to reflect that they will now be authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority .
GEN 4 Annex 1 contains the required disclosures (e.g. “Authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority”). Firms will be happy to note that there is a transitional period until 1 April 2014 in respect of the new status disclosure obligations.
