FSA to run surgeries for small firms

clock

The FSA will run surgeries in northern England for IFAs next week.

FSA small business supervisory staff will make individual one hour appointments with advisers to answer regulatory questions. The surgeries will support the regulator's aim of improving its business with small firms. The surgeries will run in Newcastle on October 16 and Durham on October 17. Advisers can book places online.
