FSA
The FSA or Financial Services Authority is an independent
regulatory body that governs financial services within the
United Kingdom.
The FSA has four main statutory objectives:
- market confidence: maintaining confidence in the
financial system;
- public awareness: promoting public understanding of
the financial system;
- consumer protection: securing the appropriate degree
of protection for consumers; and
- the reduction of financial crime: reducing the
extent to which it is possible for a business to be used
for a purpose connected with financial crime.
These main objectives are also followed by the 11 main
principles of business, which can be found here
http://www.fsa.gov.uk/Pages/Library/Communication/PR/1999/099.shtml.
These principles govern every aspect of our business and
form the fundamental working practice of sapphire securities
and give our clients the confidence and peace of mind that
the regulatory body’s provides.
