Regulated Activities
The introduction of the Capital Requirements Directive, along with MiFID – the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive – and other directives, has led to a change in the regulatory landscape that many investment businesses are grappling with.
Additional changes in the UK’s regulatory structure only increase uncertainty and complexity further. But, we are here to help.
Our team of experienced advisory and accounting professionals has more than 20 years’ experience in the sector and our partners are readily available and committed to helping to support regulated businesses.
