ATEB Consulting
Company Name
Description

ATEB is one of the few compliance consultancies that undertakes Conduct of Business Skilled Persons (Section 166) reviews on behalf of the FCA.

We cover the whole of the UK with regionally based consultants and offer an industry leading Suitability Report writing system.

We are experts in the Defined Benefit Pension Transfer sector. Check out our News page here for an example of the depth and detail in our newsletters https://www.atebconsulting.co.uk/news/ .

We are one of the earliest compliance consultancies, founded in 1996 to plug a gap in the market. Since then, we have provided pragmatic and hands-on support to IFAs, mortgage brokers, general insurance intermediaries, credit brokers, debt management companies, lenders and chartered surveyors. We have long standing and loyal clients and a good relationship with the FCA.

We do not simply provide resources and let you get on with it (what we call ‘Report and Run’ consultancy) but work with you as part of the team to implement solutions. Every year, our consultants complete around 1000 on-site client visits.

Although we may introduce you to third party professionals, for example for PI insurance, we do not recieve any form of inducement and hence provide a completely unbiased, objective and independent service, focusing solely on your needs.

We pride ourselves on the quality of service provided and have a proven track record of delivering consistently high standards. Don’t just take our word for it; see for yourselves what our clients say on our website.

Apricity Compliance
Company Name
Description

Apricity is the new kid on the compliance block! Quite simply, we offer support to help advisers and planners and their firms be compliant in as simple a manner as possible.

Having been created after listening to advisers frustrated with their existing compliance support (insight from our sister company, outsourced paraplanning company Para-Sols), we understand first-hand that legislation and FCA guidance can be difficult to navigate. And so, Apricity was designed to be something truly unique, to support directly authorised firms who want to focus their time on giving amazing advice to their clients.

Our two missions are…
1. To help you set up your business so that all future output is naturally compliant; and
2. To make your compliance experience positive, helpful, even enjoyable!

It’s a big ask. It means completely changing the face of ‘compliance’ as we now know it, but we think we’re the right people for the job.
