Expert compliance support without joining the ITC network
ITC Compliance Consultancy is designed for firms that are already FCA authorised or do not wish to operate as Appointed Representatives. This service provides expert regulatory support while allowing the business to remain fully responsible to the FCA.
ITC acts as a trusted compliance partner, delivering practical solutions that support regulatory obligations and business objectives. Directly authorised firms can receive support fulfilling FCA requirements around second-line reviews, focusing on independent, evidence-based assurance. This includes second-line functions that actively challenge the first-line (internal business operations), ensuring robust controls, monitoring, and effective management information, particularly regarding potential conflicts of interest and consumer duty.
