Very many thanks for your customary progressive and constructive advice on compliance issues!
The LWF Consulting team has been advising and assisting us with compliance since 2010. The service is always exceptional. The team is extremely experienced in all compliance matters and can provide advice at a moment’s notice on anything relating to the compliance of our business. We are delighted with the service and would recommend the team for any small or large business looking to outsource.
We have worked with LWF over the last 10 years since authorisation with the FSA (FCA). During this time, the team have provided us with the ongoing compliance guidance and advice needed to deal with the ever-growing complexity of UK regulation. Working in ‘partnership’, LWF has helped us develop a robust compliance culture and implement comprehensive controls as our business has grown.
LWF Consulting has successfully managed all of our compliance requirements in a timely, helpful and professional manner. It is a relief to know that they can be counted on whatever the question or need. As a small firm, we value the ability to outsource our compliance function and the service that LWF consistently provides.
LWF Consulting Limited has been a useful and informative resource for our company for the past six years. It has successfully guided us through the FSA (now FCA) authorisation process. As the designated investment adviser to an offshore property fund, we depend on LWF’s invaluable advice to comply with the often complex regulatory requirements of the FCA. The guidance offered over the last six years has kept us abreast of changes in the rules and allows us to perform our role as investment adviser and promoter to the fund and to other clients with confidence and ease.
LWF Consulting has been our regulatory compliance consultant for over 10 years. Throughout this period, LWF has advised and guided us through the changing requirements of the regulatory environment and partnered us in developing our compliance arrangements. LWF addresses our compliance needs and both Arun and Somerset offer their experience and support to us in both a professional and timely way. We highly recommend them.
Whilst you can make your application for authorisation to the FCA unassisted, I am glad we used LWF. With their help, we were able to register and get authorised as the UK subsidiary of a US corporate finance house expeditiously. LWF was also able to assist with responding successfully to the unexpected questions asked by the FCA. A swift, pragmatic and efficient adviser.
