The FCA is the independent body that regulates the financial services industry in the UK.

Being FCA regulated allows Confero to work with more freedom in the financial services sector, particularly when dealing with financial information and data confidentiality as well as complying with strict regulations in regard to the physical security of our Colindale, London call centre premises.

What does this mean to clients?

Our FCA status allows us to sell and administer financial products on behalf of clients within areas like Banking, Payment Cards, Insurance products, Loans and Mortgages. Additionally, our authorisation permissions allow us to manage policy sales and claims on behalf of Insurance Companies.

Being regulated by the FCA provides a guarantee to the Compliance Officers of our financial services clients that we work to the strictest code of conduct and rules to ensure that most importantly, their clients are fully protected.

In addition, for our non-FCA regulated clients, they are reassured by the guidelines, processes and security we are bound to comply with as an outsourced call and contact centre authorised by the FCA.

Our Financial Services Register number is 439234. For confirmation of our FCA status, please click here.

Treating Customers Fairly (TCF)

We also work within the guidelines of the FCAs 'Treating Customers Fairly' policy which states that firms must be able to demonstrate that they are consistently delivering fair outcomes to consumers. In addition, it demonstrates that senior management are taking responsibility for ensuring that the firm and staff at all levels deliver the consumer outcomes relevant to their business through establishing an appropriate culture.
